Easter Hymns, Carols & Anthems Reviews:
The way the hymns should be done 
2001-02-14 - In many churches today the rich hymnody of the past has been replaced by Christian pop and simplistic choruses. Hymns seem old and stodgy. Not so the hymns on this album. This is the way the hymns should be heard in praise to God.
Highest quality choral music for the season
1999-04-07 - This is my favorite recording of this fine choir's repertoire in recent years. Not only are the arrangements of the familiar hymns spectacular, but the unfamiliar and contemporary pieces are glorious. The addition of the brass and percussion on many of the pieces make this recording particularly moving. I recommend it hightly!
