The CD was recently chosen as Album of the Week on Classic FM. The radio station's website said:



"The music is as timeless, spacious, and rapturous as you would hope for. The performances by the choir of Selwyn College, Cambridge are sublime, and the recording captures them in all their glory, helped by the incomparable acoustics of the Lady Chapel of Ely Cathedral." You can purchase the CD here: http://www.regent-records.co.uk/product_details_307.htm



"Eternal Ecstasy" was launched on the Selwyn choir's July tour of the Pacific Northwest. All four of their concerts received standing ovations from packed audiences.

    Sweden’s foreign minister Tobias Billström gave a talk at Selwyn on April 16th about why his country has joined NATO. He warned that the world is going through a dangerous phase: not just the Russian attack on Ukraine, but also China’s intentions and the current crisis in the Middle East. These changing circumstances were why Sweden decided to relinquish the neutrality that it has held for more than two centuries.
