The Choir of Clare College, Cambridge and director Graham Ross continue their series of music for the church year with a sequence for Easter Day that spans five centuries and explores the rich tapestry of repertoire from across the European continent.

"A good deal of thought has gone into the planning of this programme. Equally, it’s obvious that the performances have been scrupulously prepared. Despite the annual change of personnel that is inevitably part and parcel of collegiate choirs the Clare College choir achieves remarkable consistency – and excellence. The performances here are in the best traditions of the house... This is a most desirable collection of Easter music." - MusicWeb International, March 2016.
