“Melbourne’s finest choral force” - Clive O’Connell, The Music

“Closing my eyes, the music swept me far away to a time and place when those who first heard this work were certain of the divine, and hopeful of their place in an afterlife where the angels would surely sing like this.” - Patricia Maunder, Limelight Magazine
