Notes & Reviews:

Carefully selected by conductor Peter Phillips, the 20 selections on these two discs were taken from over 40 recordings made by The Tallis Scholars for Gimell, starting with their classic recording of Allegri's 'Miserere' from 1980. The Tallis Scholars are entirely devoted to the performance of Renaissance choral music. Their recordings, as well as a regular and extensive schedule of concert performances, have done much to stimulate interest in Renaissance music in general.
