This collection by the world-renowned Chichester Cathedral Choir, features several splendid large-scale anthems by England`s finest choral composers of this fascinating period including also works by S.S. Wesley and John Goss. "This recording has come up trumps. The lay vicars are superb, especially the counter-tenors. A Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis by Henry Smart certainly bring the CD to a rousing and satisfying contrapuntal conclusion." — Max Kenworthy, MusicWeb, 22/10/2007
