"The small string ensemble of Oxford Baroque plays the Praeludium with a juxtaposition of sensuousness and decorum ... the choir's interjections are fantastically articulate, with gentle use of inégales, gorgeously shaped ornamental cadences and sincere delivery of the texts."
- Gramophone
"With masterly direction Edward Higginbottom draws a remarkable range of tone colour from his choir with the voices blending quite gloriously and to compelling reverential effect. Praise too is due to the players of the Oxford Baroque for their unfailing support ... engineers are to be congratulated for first class sound quality: crisp, clear and well balanced. Stunningly performed by an immaculately prepared choir, this release is of the highest quality and deserves particular praise."
- MusicWeb International
This release by the New College Choir and Oxford Baroque under Edward Higginbottom is devoted to works by Marc-Antoine Charpentier, hailed as France's greatest 17th century composer. These three large scale works from three different phases in Charpentier's life reveal with eloquence his range and accomplishment.
