作为展示埃米莉·格雷(2000-2001年度英国广播公司第二电台年度唱诗班女孩)和克莱尔·巴克利训练有素的嗓音的专辑,这一选曲展示了两位歌手努力满足从16世纪到20世纪各类音乐片段风格要求的成果。有时,考虑到各种困难因素,她们完成得非常出色。所有曲目都是为独唱者、合唱团和管风琴编排的,尽管它们所需的资源差异很大。例如,这些资源包括男孩的嗓音和各种乐器,尤其是弦乐器。抛开音乐的原汁原味不谈,对于像巴赫、沃恩·威廉姆斯、伯德和安东尼奥·洛蒂这样风格要求截然不同的作曲家,编排方式却始终如一:一个过于热情的合唱团,以及《古今圣歌集》风格的管风琴伴奏。由来自切塔姆音乐学院的16名男孩和女孩,再加上9名精力充沛的平信徒职员组成的合唱团,从一开始就明显存在男高音和高音声部之间的不平衡。在第一首曲目,门德尔松的《垂听我的祈祷》中,在曼彻斯特大教堂高耸的声学环境下,这个缺陷一直很棘手,并且在整个节目中一直存在。埃米莉·格雷年轻自然的女高音在整首曲子中都把控得很好。她敏锐的音乐素养和出色的发音为她未来的职业生涯奠定了良好的基础。
然而,总体而言,这张专辑有些差强人意。我不是纯粹主义者,只要合辑或编排有合理的依据,我并不反对,但听了半个小时后,这张专辑就已经开始让人觉得乏味了。不同时期和风格的巨大差异拼凑出的音乐,也许能给一些人带来承诺中的“慰藉与反思”,但却不符合其中大多数曲目的音乐标准。

As a showcase for the well-trained voices of Emily Gray (BBC Radio 2 Choir Girl of the year 2000-2001) and Claire Buckley this selection shows both singers striving to meet the stylistic demands of titbits from the 16th to the 20th centuries. Sometimes, considering the odds, they succeed very well. All the pieces are arranged for soloists, choir and organ, though they require very differing resources. For example these include boys’ voices and various instruments, particularly strings. Authenticity aside, for composers with such differing stylistic demands as Bach, Vaughan Williams, Byrd and Antonio Lotti, the formula remains the same: an over-zealous choir and a Hymns Ancient and Modern organ accompaniment. With sixteen boys and girls from Chetham’s School of Music plus nine lusty lay clerks an imbalance between tenors and the higher voices in the choir is apparent from the start. In the first item, Mendelssohn’s Hear my prayer this defect remains troublesome in Manchester Cathedral’s lofty acoustic and remains as the programme continues. Emily Grey’s youthful, unforced soprano is in control throughout. Her sensitive musicianship and excellent diction bodes well for her future career.
Overall, however, this is a somewhat hand-me-down disc. I am no purist and have no objection to compilations or arrangements provided they have valid credentials, but after half an hour this disc was already beginning to outstay its welcome. The wide disparity of periods and styles make for a confection that might bring the promised ‘solace and reflection’ to some, but does not satisfy the musical criteria of most of the items included.
