Description

'I would still consider one four-minute snippet of a cappella singing on this disc, in Stanford's 'The Blue Bird,' the most hauntingly beautiful performance/recording I have ever heard. The control of this small, mixed-voice choir over all musical parameters is quite unbelievable, and this tiny record label, set up especially to record their performances, has captured the essence of their unique qualities to perfection. Friends come to my home to listen to this disc (and, subsequently, all have bought it)---to once let it go would mean never to hear it again!' - Stereophile, 1991 Records 2 Die 4.
