Morten Lauridsen: Lux aeterna (2005) more music like this

performed by Polyphony (choir, chorus), Britten Sinfonia, Stephen Layton (conductor)
composed by Morten Lauridsen

Despite the wide geographical separation between the music's point of origin and that of the performers -- Morten Lauridsen is based in southern California, while Polyphony and its conductor Stephen Layton are as English as they come, with a profound knowledge of the acoustic qualities of London's churches -- this disc represents an ideal match of ...

O Magnum Mysterium (2004) more music like this

performed by Tiffany Consort
composed by Alessandro Scarlatti, Francis Poulenc, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Morten Lauridsen, Nicholas White, Tomás Luis de Victoria, William Byrd

The specific combination of virtuoso a cappella choral music performed by an octet is the Olympic pole vault of vocal ensemble performance: pitches, like vaults, will be missed, but the whole thing is so thrilling to take in that you don't care. New York's Tiffany Consort is a small group of elite singers that has concertized in the fearsome Bach ...
