I love the end, where it just sort of melts away after ' Jerusalem, Jerusalem. ' You can feel the emotion, the longing.

Stunning stuff. What a glorious sound! This must surely be one of the best choirs in the world at the moment? Alto phrasing a highlight, but maybe that's just my ear for counter-tenors...

Oh no, It's possible. Oh boy. Moment very important for me. Thank you for this moment special. Jubilant.

Fantastic performance, and is there a better Tudor composer than Tallis? Passionate and spirited - Higginbottom gets it right yet again. I was a chorister at St Thomas (under "Uncle" Gerre Hancock) from '83-'86 (Decani), so its great to see those old choir stalls after 25 years!

I'd personally put Browne on equal footing.

Very soothing after after the 2016 election, but oddly, with the sense foreboding things to come.
