"Portland State Chamber Choir produces a beautifully blended sound in Ešenvalds's multi-layered, atmospheric music - although a whole disc of it does begin to pall after a while. Probably best consumed in bite-size chunks"

"Editor's choice: Ethan Sperry's immaculate Portland State Chamber Choir clearly relish the luscious choral textures, which often expand into 16 parts. The engineering captures with great clarity both this sense of spaciousness (helped by the resonant acoustic of the church recording venue) and the extreme dynamic range. All the solo vocal contributions are magnificent ... A stunning, timely triumph, therefore, full of ravishing, transformative and deeply touching music"
