Press Reviews

“Psalmfest, though eclectic and easy on the ear, presents quite a challenge to performers with its ever-changing rhythms, differing styles and tricky tempo and key changes. Singers have to be alert and very well drilled to bring off these colourful psalm settings with confidence and panache. Clearly, the Bach Choir had worked hard and under the inspired direction of Richard Laing, produced an impressive performance, capturing the mood of each psalm with stylish, disciplined singing. The performance was enhanced by assured and imaginative accompaniment from organist Mark Batten.”
Neil Crutchley, Leicester Mercury

“Soaring harmonies and excellent dynamics were the hallmarks of a wonderful concert of European sacred music by the Leicester Bach Choir.  . . . a joyous and reflective occasion.”
(June Concert, 2008)

“Many of us think of the Leicester Bach Choir as an old friend and it was good to be part of the capacity audience for its 80th birthday celebration.  [The performance] brimmed over with vitality.  Richard Laing …succeeded in capturing both the grandeur and humanity of the work, with good dynamic contrasts, lively rhythmic pointing and a strong sense of drama.”
(Bach’s B Minor Mass – April 2008)
