Sleeve Notes

'What a feast is here! Superb, radiant, colourful singing of a perfect selection of Weelkes' music. A finer selection more persuasively sung would be hard to imagine. Buy it' (Organists' Review)

'Hyperion's recording is excellent and the booklet, with all texts and good notes, is a model' (Classic CD)
