The opening years of the twenty-first century can justifiably lay claim to being a new golden age for choral music. I wanted to embark on a series of recordings to reflect this and to showcase some of today’s best contemporary composers, placing their works in direct relief with masterpieces from previous ages. This recording, the second in our ‘Renaissance gems and their reflections’ series, looks at the music of Thomas Tallis, and we are delighted to have commissioned a number of talented composers to offer their personal reflections on his works. I hope that these new pieces, like Tallis’ originals, will find their way into the repertoire of other vocal groups, delighting audiences both now and in the future. – Suzi Digby OBE Le début du XXIe siècle peut véritablement être qualifié de nouvel âge d’or de la musique chorale. Afin de refléter cette tendance et pour mettre en valeur les compositeurs contemporains, j’ai souhaité réaliser une série d’enregistrements qui juxtaposerait leur inspiration et les chefs-d’œuvre du passé. Pour ce deuxième volet de notre série “Joyaux de la Renaissance et d’aujourd’hui”, consacré à Thomas Tallis, nous avons demandé à plusieurs compositeurs de talent de nous proposer leurs réflexions musicales sur les œuvres de ce grand musicien. J’espère que ce nouveau répertoire, à l’instar des compositions originales qui l’ont inspiré, trouvera sa place dans les programmes d’autres ensembles vocaux pour enchanter les publics d’aujourd’hui et de demain. – Suzi Digby OBE

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
