"Christophers draws brilliant performances from his singers, both technically assured and vividly impassioned." -- <i>The Guardian</i> A brand new recording by Harry Christophers and his award-winning group. Harry Christophers and The Sixteen won the <b>2009 Classic FM/ Gramophone Artist of the Year Award</b> as well as the award for best <b>Baroque Vocal Recording</b>. This new disc focuses on the great sacred music of 16th century England, both pre- and post-Reformation. Sheppard, Tallis, and Byrd all feature on the recording but the disc centers around Sheppard's Media Vita, which is a staggering achievement not only in sheer size but also in its expression.
