By using a choir of mixed voices which are so well balanced, Peter Phillips is able to bring to light inflections of sound which are not available to ensembles formed only of male voices.

The singing of The Tallis Scholars is flawless. Yet that description should not for one second imply anything cold or academic. These are vital performances that bring Josquin’s music vividly to life. The listener is engaged right from the start and consistently drawn onwards and into the music.

Andrew McGregor

The Tallis Scholars and Peter Phillips finding a perfect place to allow those musical lines to unfold against each other in the Chapel of Merton College, Oxford. It's a superbly focused recording.

There should always be a special place for this kind of high flown perfection and the sense of timelessness it evokes.
