"Continuing along the trail they blazed successfully nearly 40 years ago with the publication of the first of the Carols for Choirs series, Oxford University Press have now produced what seems likely to be another winner, Advent for Choirs . . . The distinguished editors, Malcolm Archer and Stephen Cleobury, have produced a marvellous resource book for church, cathedral and concert choirs of all sizes and abilities. It represents outstanding value for money." - Music Teacher, May 2001 "This book will provide an extremely valuable resource . . . competent church choirs will probably benefit most from it, particularly if their directors of music have either limited knowledge of available repertoire or limited time for choosing
and sourcing music . . . Perhaps those dog-eared copies could be chucked in the bin and replaced with a set of brand new copies of this anthology!" - Choir and Organ, Sept/Oct 2000
