Lovely recording. The acoustics are clear. [...] All the registrations are provided. What was for me a real experience, was the settings in which Sytse Buwalda sings, accompanied by Wilma van der Wardt. [...] Profundity and virtuosity alternate. [...] It's a good cd for just listening. (De Orgelvriend)
