Instruments: SATB A Kevin Mayhew mega-collection of the very best new choral writing, and what a bargain - just 25 pence per anthem!
These are all settings for mixed voices, well within the capabilities of the average parish choir, and the music is melodic, beautifully written and harmonically pleasing.
