Der Mensch lebt und bestehet
nur eine kleine Zeit;
und alle Welt vergehet
mit ihrer Herrlichkeit.
Es ist nur Einer ewig und an allen Enden,
und wir in seinen Händen.

It's always a pleasure to hear these voices, always in tune and very well conducted. It's beautiful, wonderful. It's like being in heaven.

I have been a devoted fan of these glorious musicians, directed superbly by Nigel, since I happened upon the stunning 2011 Tenebrae concert performances of music by the composer Paul Mealor. I have enjoyed choral music for my entire life, and the astonishing gifts of these singers are positively addictive. Be sure to listen to all that they offer; there’s an incredible catalog of music here.
