“the performers are all so completely wrapped up in this music, and it is sufficiently interesting to maintain one’s attention even if one is not inclined toward religiosity in music, that it commands and holds your attention from first note to last... It is, quite simply, terrific.”
- Lynn René Bayley, Fanfare
From the Ends of the Earth sees the Orleans, Massachusetts-based choir Gloriæ Dei Cantores and conductor Elizabeth C. Patterson perform works by Armenian-American composer Alan Hovhaness. Clear and highly tuneful but often incorporating engaging chromaticism, Hovhaness's music has enduring appeal when performed with the dedication that Gloriæ Dei Cantores brings, on full display in works such as A Simple Mass and 3 Motets, included on this release.
