Absolutely beautiful!

Actually, as an english anglican choirperson, I would say that the sopranos in particular....and the "American sound", bring a new edge and dimention to this piece which was quite an eyeopener .....different to the "Cathedral sound"......but great.....in of itself .......I will be looking for more of your postings and keep up the good work.....super.......

I LOVE this piece! Great tenors! An English choir would have no vibrato in the sopranos, though, which I prefer.

I remember sightreading this on the concert, with the London Uni choir :-)
