Around Renaissance Europe in 80 Minutes
The Tudor Consort presents a sampler of sacred and secular music from the major regions of Renaissance Europe — England, France, Flanders, Italy, and the Iberian Peninsula. The programme features the Kyrie from Palestrina’s Missa Papae Marcelli, the haunting motet Tulurunt Dominum by Flemish composer Nicolas Gombert, and Tallis’s exuberant Loquebantur variis linguis.
The Tudor Consort appears courtesy of Chamber Music Hutt Valley.

This album is a collection of live recordings made from performances in Parroquial Church in Ordizia, Spain, and in the beautiful baroque church of Madonna dei Monti in Rome after The Tudor Consort’s tour to Spain and Italy in 2005. This recording includes a New Zealand recording of Alfonso Ferrabosco’s Lamentatione Jeremiae Prophetae for male voices. This recording was prepared for The Tudor Consort’s 20th anniversary. |

Cantiones Sacrae Quinis Vocibus “… This is a wonderful choir … conductor Peter Walls understands … the overall period style … and he obviously cares a lot about ensemble balance and uniformity of tone and color” — Classicstoday.com |
