“This endearing set of Christmas pieces isn’t just music: it’s message, it’s poetry and celebration. Performed by an ensemble of a cappella voices in a traditional, strophic way, and with brilliant melodic figurations.”
– Sonograma Magazine
“This is a charming disc of carol settings by Patrick Hawes, and also two more substantial pieces – The Nativity and Four Christmas Motets – sung to perfection by New England’s chamber choir, Voce. With impeccable diction, blend and pitching, this really is a choir at the top of their game. Most of the music on this disc is sung a cappella to great effect. It is a lovely, meditative accompaniment to Christmas.”
– Royal School of Church Music (RSCM)
“This collection of new festive works has a general sense of hushed reverence, nicely suited to the soft-edged, well balanced voices of the Voce Chamber Choir.”
– BBC Music Magazine
