Author: Marc Rochester
Grier's intention was to produce a sequence of choral items, organ solos and readings within the framework of a service but with the ''unity of a single composer's work''. His style is so eclectic, ranging from Taverner to Tavener (although his recent sojourn in India has borne no tangible fruit in this work) that any stylistic unity seems purely superficial. Never mind, this is an unspeakably beautiful work given a truly memorable performance.'
