Reviews / Votes
The piece is easy, in fact extremely easy, and whilst it is simple in conception it is at the same time subtle . . . Simple, but touchingly effective. * Church Music Quarterly, September 08 * The Church Music Society has rescued this setting, elegant in its simplicity, and Richard Lyne has provided an attractive optional fauxbourdon setting for the middle stanza. * The Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicisn (US), May 2009 * This setting immediately seems familiar and comfortable, I think due to the timelessness of its simple strophic and syllabic treatment and modal feel. * Choir & Organ, November 08 *More details
