Thomas Tallis - Spem in Alium

Thomas Tallis (c. 1505 - 23 November 1585)

Spem in Alium

The Tallis Scholars; Peter Phillips, conductor

7 tracks; 43 minutes

Amazing choral music from the great British composer Thomas Tallis.

Included is the 40 part motet "Spem in Alium", one of the pinnacles of polyphonic writing, and the lovely pentecost motet "Loquebantur variis linguis".

The selection in this CD is flawless and it's one of my favorites, so here it is for everyone to enjoy.
