Synopsis

Album Description
"Christophers draws brilliant performances from his singers, both technically assured and vividly impassioned." -- The Guardian A brand new recording by Harry Christophers and his award-winning group. Harry Christophers and The Sixteen won the 2009 Classic FM/ Gramophone Artist of the Year Award as well as the award for best Baroque Vocal Recording. This new disc focuses on the great sacred music of 16th century England, both pre- and post-Reformation. Sheppard, Tallis, and Byrd all feature on the recording but the disc centers around Sheppard's Media Vita, which is a staggering achievement not only in sheer size but also in its expression.
