"Every measure resonates deeply with me and I feel there is sincerity, even in the great moments of bombast," said John Nelson of the composition. Describing the live event, The Times wrote, "The surpassing virtue of this performance … was that both aspects, the spine-shakingly spectacular and the heart-rendingly haunting, were allowed to make their impact."
