This cd is absolutely beautiful. My parents bought it at the Cathedral when we were in England about 10 years ago. Since I live on my own, I have been searching high and low for it for years. I finally found it here, and bought it. It's as good as I remember. Probably one of my favorite CD's of all time of any genre of music.

This review is from: Sounds of Canterbury (Audio CD)

Since visiting the cathedral some years ago, at that time purchasing this cd, I've literally played it to death. I can only say the recording is nothing but sublime, particluarly the Miserere Mei Deus (track 5) and the Antiphon "Let all the World..." (track 12).
