Anthems Vol.1 - BBC Radio 3 CD Review

“It’s a sumptuous sound… from the Choir of Trinity College Cambridge, conducted by Stephen Layton. Big acoustic, Ely Cathedral, and the power of the organ played by Harrison Cole is well-harnessed and very realistically balanced. The high standard of Layton’s singers guides us through Wesley’s epic anthem ‘The Wilderness’, more Elgar, Howells, Patrick Gowers, living composers James MacMillan, Paul Spicer, Francis Pott and David Bednall: not far off two centuries of Anglican tradition.”
