What the press said
As dramatically coherent and satisfying as I've heard for a while … this is a St John which carries open-hearted conviction and character before it. The Gramophone
A coherent, articulate and engaging performance that balances well the work's twin identities as narrative and contemplation. MusicWeb International
Charles Daniel's level-headed Evangelist anchors the narrative thrust with suave sagacity. BBC Music Magazine
