The work that truly sends shivers up and down the spine is I was glad. A stirring, vibrant, awesome majesty of sound, enhanced by both organ and Onyx Brass.

Daily Telegraph

I was glad is hugely expansive and majestic. Its grandeur enhanced by its use of Grayston Ives’ arrangement. It’s difficult to resist the spine-tingling monumentalism of the performance.

BBC Music Magazine

The sheer thrill of the aural spectacle – this is pomp and circumstance writ large.

MusicWeb International

This mouth-watering programme has the added attraction of new brass arrangements by Grayston Ives. The Abbey’s generous resonance is well captured – listeners can enjoy the dignity and grandeur of the sounds of the choir, organ and brass, ringing around the historic spaces.

Gramophone

A highly rewarding release of the highest quality. A big, bold sound, the arrangements emphasising the splendour.

Audiophile Audition USA

Hugely impressive. Crank up the volume, but make sure the neighbours are out. Better still, invite them round to listen.
