Christ Church Cathedral Choir
Stephen Darlington, director
"Nimbus help us to redress the chronological perspective by presenting Martin's little-known Mass, mainly of 1922, alongside Poulenc's Mass of 1937: more importantly, in so doing they (well, Stephen Darlington primarily) have enriched the catalogue with a work that is not only masterly in the technique of enriched the catalogue with a work that is not only masterly in the technique of its a cappella eight-part writing but immensely impressive and moving as an artistic experience ... everything here is sung with total security and artistic finish."
Lionel Salter, Gramophone
