A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

I do recommend this book very highly to organists and choirmasters of all levels, for OUP's collection has something for everybody and at the price is a real bargain. It can genuinely claim to be "a complete resource for every church choir". (The Organ, March 08)

The main question with this book is why no one has thought to do this before . . . This is a book that could transform your choir's repertoire and is well worth the price. OUP should be congratulated. (Jonathan Wikeley, The Singer, June 06)

The groups that will benefit most from this book are the myriad parish church and school choirs up and down the country who often struggle for numbers or voice parts . . . this is a life-saver if you conduct a choir of the only-one-80-year-old-tenor or men-only-at-Christmas sort . . . This book will surely become a staple for choirs throughout the country. (Jonathan Wikeley, Music Teacher March 08)
