Review

[N]o matter what your parish’s musical resources, you can celebrate with these songs. . . . I love the musicality of these works and applaud the systematic effort they represent. . . . you must acknowledge the significant contribution these composers are making through their careful consideration of the use of music in the liturgy, their successful attempt to the place the voice in a position of musical prominence, and their commitment to the singing of psalms as the primary prayer language of the liturgical assembly. Pastoral Music

Musically, the styles are many and varied: there will be something that appeals to everyone . . . Having used the previous sampler extensively, I am happy that the songs work, drawing people into song whilst processing, providing a spiritual moment in particular during the Communion procession through the repetitive nature of the music and the scriptural texts.Music and Liturgy
