Brabbins, who truly understand the language of this music, judges the tempos and balance of the ensemble with instinctive sensitivity; his handling of the chorus […] is outstanding ,and he genuinely brings out the luminosity of Stanford’s lustrous orchestration which is splendidly executed by the CBSO [...] there is much more to learn about Stanford’s choral masterpiece from the more cohesive architecture, sound and élan of this vibrant new issue from Hyperion. For anyone interested in British choral music of the period, it is a must! 
Martyn Brabbins has the music – and the traditions on which it draws – intuitively under his radar. Impeccably he sculpts the flow and sweep that is so often Stanford’s expressive default position […]. With fine singing for the chorus and soloists alike, the Requiem discloses one of Stanford’s greatest achievements.
The CBSO plays splendidly throughout. The collective response is sonorous and there’s an abundance of expert solo work to enjoy and admire The performance could not be in better hands than those of Martyn Brabbins. His conducting demonstrates evident empathy with the score and it seems clear that he brings out the best in all the performers.
