'At Twilight'

"Grainger's mastery of choral textures shines out of this wide-ranging collection of folk-song arrangements, each highly individual and memorable. Plus his friend Grieg's fimely scored religious settings. Superior performances by Stephen Layton and Polyphony."
Five Stars BBC Music Mag (July 2006)

"I thoroughly enjoyed this disc and I hope that many other collectors will derive equal pleasure from it."
(MusicWeb Nov 2006)

"In all honesty there isn't a performance on the whole disc that is less than first class. Tuning, balance, clarity and diction are all excellent and Layton and his singers serve both composers admirably. The recording is very good indeed, allowing just the right amount of resonance but never sacrificing clarity for atmosphere. With excellent notes and full texts, the presentation is up to the usual high standards of the Hyperion stable.
I thoroughly enjoyed this disc and I hope that many other collectors will derive equal pleasure from it."
