Reviews

“The timbre of the Rose Ensemble is really lovely.  Their singing is clear and forthright, quite reminiscent of Sequentia.  One can hear it in the exuberant way they attack and drive through phrases.  It really contributes to the rhetoric of the lyrics.”

— Loewen, American Record Guide, September/October 2009
