“Terrific album.” ★★★★

Put aside any notions of the repetitive choral trudge heard at many an Evensong – this terrific album displays the many ways that the 150 Old Testament Psalms can be represented, from a surprise appearance of Coate’s Dambusters March to a Howells Psalm Prelude for organ, via composers ranging from Palestrina and Purcell to Bobby McFerrin.
