I used to sing in a choir when I was at the University and I discoverd Palestrina and Victoria. Then the world never was the same. I can´t express how much The Tallis Scholars meant in my life. How much I´ve loved or cried with its masterpieces. In my opinion is the best choir

This recording was nominated for a Grammy in 2011. Crying shame it didn't win!! The music is awesome. The performance impeccable! The Tallis Scholars are without a doubt the finest early music ensemble in the world!!!

Thank you SO much for sharing this! It is a special treat to see a recent performance by this superb ensemble. Although the personnel has changed a lot in recent years, the sound is just as sublime. I hope you will share more videos; I have watched "Singing Elizabeth's Tune" many times, and have hoped for more like this. Congratulations to all of you! I'm looking forward to hearing you in Chicago in December. --Kirin

That's lovely. :)

I couldn't agree more with @toretenore I just saw them in concert a few days ago and Peter is a tremendous conductor who is the glue that keeps the ensemble together instead of micro managing the performance...American ensembles are so accustomed to conductors spoon feeding them and berating time...what a colossal insult to the composer and the integrity of music that would be!

Check out what Mr. Phillips himself has to say. Go to the musicsacra . com website and look up the Fall 2007 issue of the journal for an instructive essay by him.
