The Choir of Gonville & Caius College Cambridge, Armonico Consort, Geoffrey Webber, Christopher Monks, Adrian France
Supersize Polyphony is a celebration of large-scale choral works from the 16th century, performed here by the Armonico Consort and the Choir of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, under their musical directors Christopher Monks and Geoffrey Webber.
The unique programme features epic motets, such as Thomas Tallis’ Spemin Alium and Alessandro Striggio’s Ecce Beatam Lucem, alongside his rarely performed 60 part Missa sopra Ecco Si Beato Giorno. Interspersed with the serene beauty of ethereal chants by Hildegard of Bingen, this new recording presents works of magnitude and polyphonic drama in stellar performances by two of the UK’s leading choral ensembles.
Hildegard:
Ave generosa
O virtus sapientae
O vos felices radices, antiphon for the patron saints & prophets
Spiritus Sanctus Vivificans
Gregorian Chant:
Spem in alium
Striggio:
Ecce beatam lucem
Missa sopra Ecco sì beato giorno
Tallis:
O nata lux de lumine 5vv
Spem in alium for eight five-part choirs '40-part Motet'
"Een cd waar je naar blijft luisteren, al is het alleen al om die ongelofelijk verfijnde Engelse koorklank."
ZING magazine 87 ****
"The two assembled choirs turn in one of the fastest Spems I can recall, and none the worse for it, though the contrapuntal detail as the choirs come to a standstill on the final chord gets lost in the wall of sound. That aside, these are workmanlike performances."
Gramophone Magazine - July 2019
"In glorious sound, the Armonico Consort presents a selection of large choral works, with a handful of pieces by Bingen, delivered with delicacy. A total delight."
