"...eventually they would have a choir who could sing with the splendour, intelligence and assurance we hear on this recital: surely on this showing, one of the country`s best...rare feeling chosen to illustrate different aspects of Byrd`s mastery...It is a superb record - the time has come to pay a long overdue second visit to Hereford." John Steane - Gramophone, 31/01/2006
