5.0 out of 5 stars King's College Classic, October 10, 2004
By R. Poudrier "bigpaws2" (Stokesdale, NC USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Way back in the dark ages, before CDs roamed the earth, I purchased the LP of this recording. It remains my favorite performance of Britten's work. The voices of the choir, accompanied by one harp, weave an achingly beautiful tapestry of sound. It is a wonderful way to introduce children and friends to the English choral tradition of sacred music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Britten Brilliance, September 28, 2004
By W. Parr "sissypower" (San Diego, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Captivating from start to finish: EMI has programmed & remastered this bounty of Britten choral work superbly. The Choir of King's College, Cambridge performs with stunning sensitivity, ethereal, heartbreaking & transcendent. A just classic disc
