This collection of anthems and hymns has too many rough edges for my liking and it is unfortunate that so many of them occur in the first vocal track "Praise Be To God In The Highest". Bearing in mind that this is a school choir though, some of the errors can be put down to inexperience as long as you are prepared to forgive the full scale massacre of "Oh Love that Will Not Let Me Go". The content of this hymn is totally missed and it is robbed of all its wonder and feeling by the raucus cacophony of the verses, inspired no doubt by the sound of nails being dragged across the black­board at Bilton Grange School. Steer clear of this one if your shell-likes are at all precious to you
