"The RIAS Chamber Choir produce a fine quality of homogenous tone and, under Marcus Creed, show themselves fully responsive to both words and music.The RIAS disc remains a strong recommendation, especially for its inclusion of the surviving Missa Canonica fragments." Gramophone Magazine

Brahms composed choral music prolifically throughout his life. As the heir to Bach and the German Protestant tradition, he based most of his motets on texts from Luther's translation of the Bible - yet succeeded in infusing them with Romanticism at its most soulful.
