This volume presents Tallis’s extraordinary seven-voice mass, Missa Puer natus est nobis, which dates from the Catholic reign of Mary I. Other works recorded here include what is possibly Tallis’s earliest work, the four-part Latin Magnificat, and the gloriously splendid Videte miraculum, a masterpiece with a rich palette of colors, enhanced by suave melodic writing with a slow-moving harmonic pulse tinged with heart-achingly gorgeous cadences.
