"The Choir of the Minster under director of music Robert Sharpe is in exceptional form throughout, with fine contributions from the trebles (both individually and as a section). A handsome introdution to Wesley and his world." Choir & Organ March/April 2011

Released in 2010 marking the 200th anniversary of the birth of Samuel Sebastian Wesley.
A beautiful collection of nineteenth-century anthems placing Wesley in context with some of his English contemporaries, and Mendelssohn – the German composer much-loved by English audiences in the mid-nineteenth century.
In addition to glorious and memorable melody, a feature of many of the works on this disc
is the extensive use of the boy treble voice in radiant and expressive solos.
