65% Informative

The audience responded strongly to the challenge of a program of emotional depth, especially in the signature work on the program Zachery Wadsworth’s The Far West .

Lawrence Wiliford was the solo tenor for the cantata, and it would be hard to find a better singer for the role.

The audience was greatly moved by the music, the text, and the experience.

As a student piece, Te Maruao by Jesse Plessis showed very real promise.

The music achieved thrilling climaxes at the major points of the text, as well as an impressive gradual subsiding of emotion at the end.

Faire is the Heaven by William Harris was a work familiar to any died-in-the-wool Anglican .
