Just staggering. Such intense, exquisite and heart-melting choral composition and choral interpretation is a rare gem today. This is charged with magnificent emotion and powerful momentum -- the sound of celestial harmony. A rare and gilded time in history for choral music of the most artistic and extreme beauty.

This polyphony is so fluent and sure, with the divine optimism of kings.

Apart from the three or four great ones whom we have long celebrated, it's the sheer number of fine Tudor composers that's staggering: Sheppard, Davy, Ludford, Hygons...

Música luminosa de una época que dejaba de ser obscura.
