Artiste: The Cardinall's Musick

Andrew Carwood and The Cardinall's Musick bring passion, vitality and grit to Tallis, and première a striking new piece by Cheryl Frances-Hoad in performances of the highest standard.

An interesting programme which brings together music inspired by angels from Palestrina to Tippett, sung in the gorgeous surroundings of St John's, Smith Square.

After fifteen years of trying to persuade us that Byrd’s lesser-known works are just as worth listening to as the famous ones, I felt that the Cardinall’s Musick could have come up with a more exciting programme of his celebration of Easter.
