CD Reviews

Probably not the best

05/11/2001

(3 out of 5 stars)

"While I have the utmost respect for the work Alfred Deller and his consort did in early music before it was really fashionable, I really can't bring muyself to enjoy this recording because of the extremely wobbly soprano in the 4 and 5-part masses. It just seems totally out of place. Much better are the recordings by the Tallis Scholars and the Cardinall's Musick, this latter being my personal favourite."
