From the liner notes:
"Eton College Chapel Choir perform an enchanting selection of 20th Century French Sacred music. Alongside world-renowned French composers such as Poulenc and Messiaen, this disc also features several fine works by de Severac and Villette, who are perhaps less well-known to modern audiences, as they lived and worked away from Paris and its Conservatoire."
