William Mundy: Vox Pat... - Choir Of New College Oxford - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

The Choir of New College Oxford’s latest album on Linn explores the rich and complex world of William Mundy, a key figure in 16th-century English music. His compositions, shaped by the religious and political upheavals of his time, offer a fascinating mix of intricate harmonies and unexpected choral textures. From the expansive Vox patris caelestis – a monument of Renaissance English polyphony – to the more intimate O Lord, the maker of all thing, Mundy’s music reflects both the compositional idioms of the day and its many challenges. This most remarkable composer shines in a performance to match by the centuries-old Choir of New College and its Director Robert Quinney. A must-hear for lovers of Renaissance choral music!
