I thought the service was extremely well directed and performed confidently. I just love those Piccolo responses...most original.
The Canticles sounded a bit MacMillan-derivative, I thought. The organ voluntary was the real thing and quite exciting.

[Nick Armstrong]

Great evensong! Enjoyed the unfamiliar music very much.

Rupert Gough is the business

Better on second hearing, partic Arthur anthem.

Plenty of new - or less known - music in this CE: greatly appreciated!
