GRAMOPHONE EDITOR'S CHOICE "...Well-timed to celebrate the centenary of Walton's birth on March 29, this latest addition to Naxos's English Church Music series is not just a first-rate bargain but provides a distinctive alternative to the two fine discs which offer very similar selections of Walton's shorter choral works, unaccompanied and with organ. Where this new issue scores... is in the use of boy trebles... the presence of boys' voices consistently brings extra freshness to the St John's Choir's performances, giving them the sort of bite one can imagine the composer having in mind, with Waltonian syncopations wonderfully idiomatic in their crisp articulation... these more intimate readings also convey more clearly the impression of church performances, a clear advantage in the liturgical items above all... this new recording, particularly at the Naxos super-bargain price, is strongly recommended..."
