Search - Ensemble Plus Ultra Michael Noone :: De Victoria: Sacred Works

The recordings were made by highly-regarded British Early Music group Ensemble Plus Ultra under Michael Noone ("a crack squad"" -Early Music Today), who won critical acclaim for CDs of Morales and other Spanish composers on the Glossa label (breathtakingly beautiful" - BBC Radio 3, CD Review). Altogether, 10 CDs of Victoria's works have been released (the final two as recently as May 2011). Now we have seized the opportunity, in the year when we commemorate the 400th anniversary of Victoria's death (27 August), to bring all of these recordings together in a single box that forms a remarkable wide-ranging compendium of works mainly from the Madrid period of his life (1586-1611). It is undoubtedly the largest collection available of Victoria's music, with over 90 works on the 10 CDs, including three masses and six Magnificats never previously recorded - as well as many of the favourite motets and masses of the Victoria canon.
