Info zu Byrd: Cantiones Sacrae

This selection collects pieces taken from the two books of Cantiones Sacrae produced by Byrd in Elizabethan England in 1589 and 1591. Byrd was really swimming against the tide with these Latin motets as there was an understandable lack of demand among professional singers in England after the Latin liturgy was abolished. The Choir was recorded in the chapel of Trinity College, Cambridge in 2001 with Richard Marlow directing.

"After a brightly festive account of the celebratory ‘Haec dies’, the Trinity College singers seem to settle down into a deeply pensive mood, exuding calm and tranquillity, peace and goodwill and a certain comfortable softness which tends to waft around the room life incense burning in some dark chapel…. This is a lovely sounding disc and it is matched by a typically generous and sturdy booklet, with clear and nicely readable notes from Kerry McCarthy… quite magical" (International Record Review)

"The Choir of Trinity College Cambridge is adept at capturing the differing moods of the pieces." (Gramophone)

"The vocalist’s ensemble and breath control permits not only the broadest of dynamic ranges, but also the quickest of contrasts and the lengthiest of crescendos. Marlow exploits this, shaping lines around Byrd’s superb word-settings, and the choir’s clarity of diction enhances the impact of Marlow’s phrasing…. The sound engineering matches that of the performance; single lines are as clearly audible as the choir’s hallmark blend." (BBC Music Magazine)
