The San Francisco Chronicle had this to say about the concert:
"... the ensemble's 12 singers, led by Music Director Matthew Oltman, rose superbly to the
challenge in one of the most alluring performances of recent seasons.

The choral textures were robust but crisp-edged, with enough tonal body to make an impact and enough transparency to let the counterpoint register. One or two passages gave evidence either of miscues or extreme harmonic daring during the Renaissance, but those were rare, and more than compensated for by the singers' close-knit ensemble and rhythmic vivacity."
