Product-Information:

The music of the sixteenth-century composer Palestrina is still today at the heart of many of the Roman Catholic services sung all around the world. The congregation at Westminster Cathedral is particularly fortunate to hear on a regular basis this inspirational music sung by one of the finest choirs in the world.

Martin Baker's first disc with the choir following his appointment at the Cathedral last year (MacMillan's Mass, CDA67219) was a resounding success. He returns to more familiar territory with this disc of Palestrina sacred music, focusing on music for Whitsuntide. (Whit Sunday commemorates the coming of the Holy Spirit in the form of flames to the Apostles, as recorded in the New Testament.)

This is glorious music and for it Martin Baker has drawn the best from his glorious choir.

Rezensionen

'Purposeful performances by a choir for whom this music is a staple diet, and whose slightly edgy, "continental" treble sound is ideally suited to it' (The Daily Telegraph)

'Here [Martin Baker] reinforces his reputation and that of the choir in energetic accounts of music by Palestrina celebrating Pentecost' (The Guardian)

'The renowned choir are on top form as they respond to Palestrina's majesty … highly recommended' (Gramophone)

'This is a thoughtful, carefully analysed performance—Baker and the Westminster choir communicate a clear sense of the structural logic … the singers are excellent … virtually flawless … shut your eyes and you can almost smell the incense. Very warmly recommended' (BBC Music Magazine)
