Background: Of all Spain's Golden Age composers, it was Cristóbal de Morales (c 1500-1553) who earned the most frequent and fulsome praise from his contemporaries. Behind this disc there lies an almost detective-like story involving a recently discovered manuscript from a dusty archive in the Cathedral of Toledo.

None of the 14 works on this disc has previously been recorded. Eleven of them come from the newly rediscovered Codex 25, while three others have been recovered from Toledo's Codex 21 and Codex 16.

Michael Noone, a graduate of King's College, Cambridge, has dedicated a lifetime to the study of Spanish Renaissance music. As scholar and musicologist he is known especially for his work in the archives of El Escorial and the Cathedral of Toledo. Most excitingly, his archival researches have recently led to the discovery of many previously unknown works by such important Spanish Renaissance polyphonists as Cristóbal de Morales, Francisco Guerrero, Alonso Lobo, and Gines de Boluda.
