“I have been amazed by the very high level of the performances, the choir, the brilliant brass, and the organists. The accompaniment, for example, of the Messe Solennelle is absolutely magnificent, as are the very good tempi: not too slow, not too fast, the perfect tempi in a beautiful acoustic. I should say: one of the very best performances of this mass I ever heard. In my opinion, Glorić Dei Cantores are a top choir, certainly one of the best in the USA, and Elizabeth Patterson’s direction of my husband’s music is absolutely wonderful.” Madame Marie Louise Langlais
“These two CDs are about as good an introduction to [Langlais’] art as I know of, and the fabulous Glorić Dei Cantores sing with the enthusiasm and devotion that their fans have come to expect. They are an exceptionally wide-repertory group, and Elizabeth Patterson has worked miracles in keeping them so excellently consistent over the years. . . . Great singing and one of the few ways to come to know this man’s work. The sound, taken down at the Church of the Transfiguration in Orleans, Massachusetts, is first rate.” Steven Ritter, Audiophile Audition
