"This is what recording should be about ... excellent performances and recorded sound ... beautiful and moving." -GRAMOPHONE <P>Scholar, mystic, priest, singer, organist, and composer – six persons all rolled into one and that is, quite simply, why Victoria was the most outstanding composer of the Spanish Renaissance. His music, highly dramatic and emotional, fully reflects the heartfelt passion with which Victoria wrote for the church. These performances are of new editions, specially commissioned for this series, and thus never before heard on disc. Authoritative liner notes by the eminent musicologist who made the editions.
