"All the music receives outstandingly good performances, both precise and impassioned."
(The Gramophone)

"The strongest work here is the Walt Whitman triptych "Expecting the Main Things from You", the weakest "Senex puerum portabat". Under Grant Gershon, the LA Master Chorale and Children's Chorus sing with dynamic control."
The Independent on Sunday

"As he freely acknowledges in his notes, his time as a chorister influenced him profoundly...Certainly, the heritage of Howells and others is clearly audible [in the First Service], but the shimmering organ writing, haloing the choir, gives it a very particular quality...All the music receives outstandingly good performances, both precise and impassioned."
(The Gramophone)

The award winning Los Angeles Master Chorale perform the choral music of America's "leading young composer". Once a boy chorister himself, Nico Muhly offers these contemporary choral classics.
