“Originally released on the Classics for Pleasure label, the issuing of this CD will mark the first time these tracks have been commercially available for over 20 years. The twelve madrigals presented here were deliberately chosen to show off the scope of the best English madrigal writing around the year 1600. Do I regret not having done more of this repertoire in the intervening years? I would, if there hadn’t been so much first-rate sacred music to explore.” Peter Phillips

*****

“This sole recording of secular music by the Tallis Scholars makes one wish for more. Byrd's 'Though Amaryllis's is very nimble, the graded dynamics in Bennet's 'All Creatures' superb.”
