Black Angels (1990) more music like this

performed by David Harrington (violin), Hank Dutt (viola), Joan Jeanrenaud (cello), John Sherba (violin), Kronos Quartet
composed by Charles Ives, Dmitry Shostakovich, George Crumb, Istvan Marta, Thomas Tallis

This disc is supposed to hurt. Just look at the program: it starts with Crumb's Black Angels for electric string quartet, a work that is the aural equivalent of Coppola's Apocalypse Now, and ends with Shostakovich's String Quartet No. 8, a work that is either the aural equivalent of a monument to the victims of war and fascism written in the ruins ...

Into the Light

Into the Light (2007) more music like this

performed by Eamon Dougan (bass), Frances Bourne (alto), Grace Davidson (soprano), Jonathan Arnold (bass), Kaori Muraji (guitar), Libby Crabtree (soprano), The Sixteen (choir, chorus)
composed by Alexander Borodin, Francisco Tárrega (Y Eixea), Gaspar Fernandes, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Johann Pachelbel, Juan de Anchieta, Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, Miguel Llobet, Thomas Tallis, Tomás Luis de Victoria

Into the Light is something of a departure for Harry Christophers and the Sixteen, the British mixed ensemble specializing in vocal music of the Renaissance. In this album they join forces with guitarist Kaori Muraji in a program made up of a variety of risky-sounding arrangements, including an abbreviated choral version of Pachelbel's Canon in D ...

Vaughan Williams: Symphony No. 5; Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis; Serenade to Music

Vaughan Williams: Symphony No. 5; Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis; Serenade to Music (2007) more music like this

performed by Cecylia Arzewski (violin), Christopher Rex (cello), David Arenz (violin), Jessica Rivera (soprano), Kelley O'Connor (mezzo-soprano), Nmon Ford (baritone), Reid Harris (viola), Thomas Studebaker (tenor), Atlanta Symphony Chorus (choir, chorus)
composed by Ralph Vaughan Williams, Thomas Tallis

Brilliant programming is here undone by mediocre performances. Starting with Thomas Tallis' brief a cappella chorus "Why Fum'th in Fight" to lead into Ralph Vaughan Williams' ecstatic string orchestra Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis based on "Why Fum'th" was a brilliant idea. For the first time, listeners could hear the source and the ...

O Magnum Mysterium

composed by Anonymous, Francis Poulenc, Franz Schubert, Henryk Górecki, Morten Lauridsen, Sergey Rachmaninov, Thomas Tallis, Tomás Luis de Victoria, Traditional, Traditional Spiritual

Robert Shaw is dead, but his recorded legacy lives on -- that is, if you can call recordings living. Telarc -- the label which served Shaw so faithfully in life by recording the greatest American choral conductor who ever lived in the core choral repertoire in exemplary sound -- Telarc is releasing every little scrap of music that the grand old ...

The Tallis Scholars Sing Thomas Tallis (2004) more music like this

performed by The Tallis Scholars (choir, chorus)
composed by Thomas Tallis

When you see a title like The Tallis Scholars Sing Thomas Tallis, you know the music's going to be right, sort of like when you hear Aretha Franklin sing in Detroit, or hear an oversize band of Central Europeans play Mahler. And so it is. This disc compiles Tallis Scholars recordings from 1985, 1986, 1992, and 1998 for the purpose of, per the ...

The Tallis Scholars: Renaissance Giants (2006) more music like this

performed by The Tallis Scholars (choir, chorus)
composed by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, John Taverner, Josquin Desprez, Thomas Tallis, Tomás Luis de Victoria, William Byrd

The title of the Tallis Scholars' two-disc set Renaissance Giants is a little intimidating; to some, it may conjure up visions of Godzilla-sized Galileos or Cosimo de Medicis trampling around, flattening the elegant façades and cathedrals of Florence and Pisa under their stocking feet. Nevertheless, it is not that; rather, Renaissance Giants is a ...

The Coronation of King George II more music like this

performed by King's Consort, Choir of the King's Consort (choir, chorus), Robert King (conductor)
composed by George Frederick Handel, Henry Purcell, John Blow, John Farmer, King's Consort, Orlando Gibbons, Recorded Sound, Thomas Tallis, William Child

"Why present just Handel's Coronation Anthems for King George II when you can present the whole Coronation?" seems to be the proposition that underlies this two-disc set, entitled The Coronation of King George II, 1727. And, thrillingly performed by Robert King directing the King's Consort and the Choir of the King's Consort, there seems no good ...
