Grammy Award nomination - Producer of the Year, Classical, 2016
British vocal ensemble stile antico celebrates the nativity of Christ with this programme that gathers music from some of the most highly regarded European composers of the late 16th and early 17th centuries, working in both the Roman Catholic and Lutheran church traditions. The latter yielded predominantly German-texted carols, often with a popular flavour and in simpler settings, while the former produced Latin polyphony. Running as a thread through the album is Clemens’s Christmas mass based on the motet Pastores quidnam vidistis, while Praetorius’s Magnificat draws strongly on both traditions.
INCLUDED EDITORIAL
Breathtaking freshness, vitality and balance (New York Times). Stile Antico's new Christmas programme of Renaissance polyphony features a glorious Mass by the Flemish master Jacobus Clemens non Papa, alongside traditional old-German carols and motets, many of them still sung to this day. An irresistibly festive collection! Stile Antico has become the gold standard in this repertory (The Independent, UK)
