‘Unquestionably one of the most important series in the history of recorded music … Is this handsomely produced box-set worth acquiring? As a work of art alone, yes! If you have not encountered these works before, do not hesitate. Dip in anywhere and you will be rewarded … there is a booklet with detailed and revealing articles by Mike Spring and Andrew Keener, together with two separate indexes … the discs have colour-coded spines to further help navigation. We expect no less. Hyperion set the industry standard for typography, annotation and presentation years ago. I eagerly await Vol 2’ (Gramophone)

‘They record in a generous acoustic and favour gentle pacing and long, languishing phrases. Theirs is an Iberian polyphony in dreamy, soft hues, at times utterly sublime’ (Gramophone)

‘The five members of the European ensemble Cinquecento (six for Cantate Domino) couldn't be more robust if they tried, and sail through this bracing repertoire unafraid … the musical equivalent of a rich chocolate cake’ (The Times)» More

‘The Huddersfield Choral Society are impressive throughout, singing with a winning combination of warmth and clarity, and Brabbins draws excellent playing from the Orchestra of Opera North, Elgar's scoring never seeming thick or stodgy. Taped last April in Huddersfield's glorious Town Hall, it all sounds marvellous’ (TheArtsDesk.com)» More

‘Few have matched the prismatic imagination of Isata Kanneh-Mason … her shrewdly weighted accents, ravishing colours and keen attention to dynamics work together in a way that makes most other performances, however exciting, seem flat in character … a distinguished addition to the Prokofiev discography’ (Gramophone)

‘A fascinating rediscovery … he could not have better advocates than Cupertinos and Toscano … Cupertinos sing with such commitment that one could be forgiven for thinking this was an actual liturgy being enacted and we were part of the congregation … an intelligence of approach that pervades their entire recital … a dynamic, continually varied and expressive experience, beautifully realised by Cupertinos’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘Cinquecento are true specialists in this repertoire’ (Gramophone)

‘So much more than just another Handel-et-al countertenor recital: it’s a delightful portal into a world of baroque wonderment and a musical project that delivers on every level’ (Gramophone)

‘Owen Rees presides over an impeccably poised and outstandingly fervent display … in every way a terrific follow-up to these same forces’ pioneering recording of Leighton’s precocious 1950 cantata Veris gratia … glorious music-making from start to finish, flawlessly captured by producer Adrian Peacock and sound engineer Dave Rowell. I should add that Rees supplies a most illuminating booklet essay. Kudos to all involved!’ (Gramophone)

‘This is a near perfection as an album of 20th- and 21st-century violin-and-piano duos can reasonably be … hard to beat’ (Gramophone)

‘The album that put Whitacre on the musical map’ (Gramophone)
