CD Reviews

Bought this for Spem in Alium, enjoyed the whole cd.
A. Vetter | NY | 10/20/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have always enjoyed Tallis's Spem In Alium. Recordings from the Cambridge Singers, Kings College and Kronos Quartet are excellent. But, the sonic possibilities of SACD convinced me to get this one.

The sound stage is perfect and the choir, especially the soprano section, sing like angels.

The newer compositions, usually modern takes on older choral masterpieces, vary from interesting to fabulous.

The Cambridge recording stands as a great cd, in regular sound.

Again, a wonderful choral experience."
