October 2016
Rarely has this ensemble sounded so full and blooming in sacred polyphony, helped by the presence of two sopranos for the top line … Isaac is at or very near the top of his game in this imposing programme, so aficionados of this period needn’t hesitate.
The Classical Reviewer 24th November 2016
impressively sung plainchant with some terrific harmonies … an exceptionally fine disc in every way
