Recenzii
Rutter sticks to what he can do and works hard to do it consummately well. His strengths begin with a natural gift for melody, as seen in The Lord bless you and keep you, a tune that has already become so familiar over 20 years that it comes as a surprise, if you didn't already know, that Rutter is the source. The simple structures of Rutter's work may verge on cliché, but clichés contain their element of truth, and the truth is that Rutter's pieces always work. There is no room here for more detailed analysis, but the craft of Rutter's contributions, in this volume as elsewhere, is unfailing . . . all the pieces in this volume, and almost all Rutter's choral output, is singable by choirs of moderate ability, or less . . . there is a warmth, inclusivity and affirmatory quality to the work that make it unusual for the late 20th century, virtues which perhaps particularly commend themselves to the Church over recent, far from easy times.
This book offers a wide range [of anthems] in economical and durable form . . . The appeal of all of these anthems is in their grateful vocal lines and in a musical language deeply rooted in an understanding and knowledge of the great choral composers of the past, but with an evident love for the melodic and rhythmic shaping of an eclectic range of twentieth-century British and American composers.
Few will need any introduction to the music of . . . John Rutter, and we can rest assured that all of the contents will be approachable and superbly crafted.

Notă biografică
John Rutter studied music at Clare College, Cambridge and first came to notice as a composer and arranger of Christmas carols and other choral pieces during those early years; today his compositions, including such concert-length works as Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, The Gift of Life, and Visions are performed around the world.John edits the Oxford Choral Classics series, and, with Sir David Willcocks, co-edited four volumes of Carols for Choirs. In 1983 he formed his own choir The Cambridge Singers, with whom he has made numerous recordings on the Collegium Records label, and he appears regularly in several countries as a guest conductor and choral ambassador.John holds a Lambeth Doctorate in Music, and was awarded a CBE for services to music in 2007.
