Soul Music - Tallis's Spem in alium is featured on BBC Radio 4

13 February 2008

The Tallis Scholars recording of Thomas Tallis's Spem in alium was featured recently in the programme "Soul Music" on BBC Radio 4. The Children's Laureate, Michael Morpurgo, gave a moving account of the Tallis Scholars performance of Spem in alium at the Memorial Service for Ted Hughes. It seems that every good CD shop in the UK sold out of the Tallis Scholars recording within a day or two of the broadcast and many have found it difficult to keep up with the demand. Our distributors have plenty of the CDs in stock so if you have been unable to find a copy please do persevere - or take the easy option and order the CD or a Download from this website. The original CD remains available on CDGIM 006 and the same recording is also available on a specially-priced 2CD set, The Tallis Scholars sing Thomas Tallis, available on CDGIM 203.
