Recenzii

This new carol has more echoes of Sondheim than its thoroughly English modal counterpart, and the accompaniment is gently quirky . . . As ever with Chilcott, the compositional craft is enviable, and George Herbert's poem is clothed in a delightfully scintillating musical mantle.
Bob Chilcott writes superbly well for voices . . . The shepherds sing (words by George Herbert) has a gorgeous richness, reminiscent of a song from a Broadway musical, as keyboard (or ideally harp) arpeggiate an accompaniment to trumpet (or saxophone or clarinet), solo soprano (with a major role here) and choir.
