Peter Phillips

Background: Richly polyphonic, darkly dorian in modality and full of striking contours, this CD takes us into a relatively unfamiliar region of Palestrina's sound-world. Matching the contrast in character between the two Masses themselves is a marked difference in recorded sound.

Whereas the business like 'Missa Brevis' is captured in such a way that evry detail is carefully reproduced, there's a breadth, distance and slight blurring to 'Missa Nasce la gioja mia that adds to the magic and the mystery.
