Tallis Scholars, Peter Phillips (director) Recorded in the Church of St John at Hackney and in Tewkesbury Abbey “England has never produced a greater composer than William Byrd. His music for the Anglican Church has
been sung without interruption since the 16th century. In stark contrast his Catholic music was not heard for over
300 years. This selection compares the formal public style of Byrd’s Anglican works like The Great Service
with the plangent intimacy of his Masses and motets.” Peter Phillips “This will delight fans of Byrd and this choir. Compelling performances (especially Ave verum) and a resonant if slightly distant sound. Some pieces though (the Mass a 5) have a surface, rather than inner, drive.” BBC Music Magazine, January 2008 **** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
