30 favourite excerpts from The Cambridge Singers/John Rutter/Royal Philharmonic Orchestra's complete performance, including the Christmas section, the Pastoral Symphony, the Hallelujah Chorus, and I Know that my Redeemer Liveth. "Rutter's excellent feel for this music, his intelligence, and his sturdy and steady hand, make this in my opinion the finest modern-instrument recording since the legendary Philips release by Colin Davis in the 1960s." -Fanfare Magazine "Not surprisingly, John Rutter's is essentially a traditional performance, but with lively tempi and no lack of expressive feeling; and it is very well recorded indeed altogether a fine set which will give much pleasure" - The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs "This recording deserves its rightful place among the numerous accounts of this timeless masterwork". - The American Organist
