Lassus: Requiem / Music for Easter Sunday

Extraordinary range of musical effects… from pure homophony, sometimes spiced with plangent dissonance, to counterpoint of some complexity. … The four voices blend well and produce a rich and vibrant tone. Speeds [are] well chosen, stately and consistent, a nd this combined with small voices allows the detail of the music to be heard with admirable clarity. … Each singer, and how expert they are, [are] firmly positioned and spaced between the loudspeakers.
Gramophone

Includ[es] the glorious Aurora lucis rutilat for two 5part choirs, and the Magnificat, based on the motet, plus Mark Brown’s fine performance of the 4part Requiem.
