The Essential Tallis Scholars
Gregorio Allegri, Antoine Brumel, ...

Gimell UK, 2003

The Greatest Hits of a Pioneer Ensemble
For years, Tallis Scholars have been quietly revolutionizing our recovery of sacred music. This is their "greatest hits" collection and quite great indeed. The Miserere which begins the set is alone worth the price of the set. The only fault with it is that it is so ...
  
  











  



  
Madrigal History Tour
Anonymous, Spanish Anonymous, ...

EMI Classics, 2004

Ever wondered what was before Bach, Lully, or Palestrina?
During the days of the Renaissance, the madrigal was one of the most popular musical forms and outputs. The King's Singers, a modern-day all male vocal group, demonstrate the authentic sound of which these 34 chosen madrigals may have been performed. In the ...
  
  











  



  
Beyond Chant: Mysteries Of The Renaissance
Anonymous, Adrian Batten, ...

Delos Records, 1994

Lofty music
Some of the earliest pieces of Christian music are the various kinds of chant. These hearken back to synagogue singing; there were various kinds of chant, including Gregorian, Old Roman, Mozarabic, Cistercian and Anglican chant. These tend toward the monophonic, ...
  
  











  



  
Discover Early Music
Alfonso X (el Sabio), 11th century French Polyphony Anonymous, ...

Naxos, 2005

awesome value -- 5+ stars
I'm really enthusiastic about these CDs and booklet. I've had it for a few weeks now, in which I've explored Medieval and Renaissance music much more deeply than this little book and CD set. Yet I'm very glad I started with these. The selection of composers gives an ...
  
  











  



  
English and Italian Renaissance Madrigals
Jacques Arcadelt, Vincenzo Bellavere, ...

EMI Classics, 2000

Not stilted but powerfully alive
My idea of stilted is to sing these madrigals in the phony, glee-club RP style endured for so many years, that made precious, quaint curiosities of them. The Elizabethan pronunciation on this CD is an eye and ear-opener. We may appreciate how much of that speech ...
  
  











  



  
The King's Singers Greatest Hits
Christopher van Kampen, Bill Jackman, ...

EMI Classics, 2008

Like a musical buffet
Everything from madrigals to the Beatles with a little Christmas music for color. Even if you're not a big fan of madrigals or folk songs, the King's have a way of making them thoroughly enjoyable and very easy to listen to. The track "You Are the New Day" will bring ...
  
  











  



  
Canticum Canticorum
Marc-Antoine Charpentier, John Dunstable, ...

ATMA, 2008

Music For and Through the Ages
I've listened to this disc half a dozen times already, yet I still don't know if I can adequately do justice to its sublime vocal magic. It's comprised of a number of songs inspired by the Song of Songs, a book in the Bible that celebrates both divine and physical ...
  
  











  



  
Palestrina: Missa Hodie Christus natus est; Stabat Mater; Lasus: Missa Bell' Amfitrit' altera
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Orlande de Lassus, ...

Naxos, 1993

An excellent CD at any price
The coupling of the three works on this recordings does an excellent job of further helping to explode the old myth that Palestrina is more notable for his masses, whereas Lassus' is more notable for his motets. The motet, Stabat Mater, is widely admired as one of ...

Choral Moods
Gregorio Allegri, Samuel Barber, ...

RCA, 1998

Gorgeous music, gorgeous performances
I am a semi-professional singer with a BA in Music, and I bought this CD with some trepidation because it looked like one of those dreadful "pop classical" compilations that are everywhere lately. But it had lots of great repertoire all in on place, so I decided to ...
  
  











  



  
The Big Trombone & Sterling Brass
Johann Ernest Galliard, Glen Hackbarth, ...

Crystal Records, 2008

(The Big Trombone) Finally on CD!!!
I got Jeffrey Reynolds's record "The Big Trombone" from my trombone teacher years ago, and was astounded at the high quality of technique and musicality in every piece. The McCarty Sonata is essentially definitive, and the de Lasso BLEW MY SOCKS OFF. It is sooo good ...
  
  











  



  
Glorious Sound of Brass
Aurelio Bonelli, William Brade, ...

Sony, 1997

A fine, clean performance
I bought this CD for track 13. Providebam Dominum by Lassus, and, while that track is a bit of a letdown, the rest of the CD is superb. This CD offers a range of brass music composed in the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The performance is very clean as far as ...
  
  











  



  
The King's Singers' Madrigal History Tour
John Dowland, William Byrd, ...

EMI Classics, 1989

A Terrific European Madrigal Sampling
Most madrigals one hears tend to be either in Italian or English. Not so on this album, perhaps one of the best European madrigal samplers (if not the only one)in existence. Some well known English and Italian madrigals can be found, of course. But the true treasure of ...
  
  











  



  
Orlando di Lasso: Prophetiae Sibyllarum

Deutsche Harm Mundi, 2002

Roland de Lassus, Orlando di Lasso, a Rose by Any Name!
The most international of composers, Roland de Lassus (1532-1594) is to 16th Century muisic like the waist of an hourglass; all the sounds of Flanders, France, Italy, and Germany of the generation before flow into him, and all the sounds of the the coming generation, ...
  
  











  



  
Lassus: Masses for Five Voices; Infelix ego
Orlande de Lassus, Jeremy Summerly, ...

Naxos, 1994

Two masses of great sensual beauty
Orlando Lassus or Roland di Lasso (c.1532 - 1594) stands as one of the most fascinating composers of the Seconda Prattica - a group of composers who stand apart from their predecessors in that their music reflects the social and political upheavels of the Reformation ...
