Reviews

  • 'Not as demanding as its designation for SSAA suggests (since the four-part work is actually a simple two-part canon), this is an intriguing piece which harnesses some of the coruscating effects achieved by minimalist composers - repeated patterns of quavers and cross-rhythms - in an accompaniment which acts as a perfect foil to a regular procession of crotchet chords mainly built on sixths and thirds given out by the voices.' -The Organ, November 07

The specification in this catalogue, including without limitation price, format, extent, number of illustrations, and month of publication, was as accurate as possible at the time the catalogue was compiled.
