Widely recognized as some of the most prolific composers of the English Renaissance, this disc explores the beauty and spacious writing of these English masters, while responding to a sort of 'pre-Reformation' compositianal style by using only Latin texts of the Catholic liturgy. The tremendous sincerity of the texts, and the absolute verve and pomp of the music make this recording a most essential part of any CD collection.
