"We hear 'a record of a unique event' for Andrew Nethsingha, who acknowledges imperfections (not that there are many) and draws attention charmingly to a moment of crisis management from the 13-year-old soloist in Allegri's Miserere. That's life and that's liturgy...The malleable, sensitive trebles have what seems to me an unparalleled ability to invest text and phrase with meaning without focus-pulling, which is a decent description of the choir's whole approach" Gramophone
