Reviews
Richard Lyne has prepared a beautiful new editin of Samuel Wesley's imposing 1810 anthem . . . While GBP3.10 is nothing to sneeze at, the edition looks well worth the investment; it is printed on nicely weighty stock, in a large format (A4 pages) that allows both a manageable size of type and five or six measure per system, even when the motion is in steady eighths. * Alan Lewis, Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians, March 2011 *
