Unexpectedly attended a concert of the Tallis
Scholars on Sunday afternoon. What joy! What beautiful voices and music.
Palestrina's Missa Assumpta est Maria, Tallis, Byrd, and more modern Arvo Pärt
and Eric Whitacre. Even Allegri's Miserere sounded fresh, new and extremely
moving with the choir (just 10 voices) split up and located in three different
parts of the concert hall. Marvellous concert, wonderful Sunday!
Here is a recording of the Tallis scholars singing the Missa
Assumpta est Maria.
