This very finely produced volume ought to form a staple in the libraries and repertoires of all self-respecting choirs and choral societies. Indeed, such is the quality of the wide-ranging selection, the practicalities of the editing and aids to performance, and the presentation throughout that one can but agree with the publisher's claim that the volume offers the perfect resource for secular choirs and singing groups, providing the flexibility to perform songs in a range of combinations from unison to SATB . . . All-in-all, this is a terrific volume that all choir-masters (and their librarians) should acquire without delay. * The Organ, Autumn 2019 *

John Rutter studied music at Clare College, Cambridge and first came to notice as a composer and arranger of Christmas carols and other choral pieces during those early years; today his compositions, including such concert-length works as Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, The Gift of Life, and Visions are performed around the world. John edits the Oxford Choral Classics series, and, with Sir David Willcocks, co-edited four volumes of Carols for Choirs. In 1983 he formed his own choir The Cambridge Singers, with whom he has made numerous recordings on the Collegium Records label, and he appears regularly in several countries as a guest conductor and choral ambassador. John holds a Lambeth Doctorate in Music, and was awarded a CBE for services to music in 2007.
