"This curious but heartfelt disc is spine-tingling. And thanks to that Decca beauty treatment - a piercingly clear and immediate sound - and the professionalism of all involved, it is never less than interesting." (BBC Music)

"I found myself haunted by the limpid beauty of these songs and the crystalline balance of Andreas Scholl's counter-tenor with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra's understated accompaniments...the commitment of Scholl and arranger and producer Craig Leon was palpable and infectious...at its best this curious but heartfelt disc is spine-tingling." (BBC Music)
