Sweelinck: Cantiones sacrae

Sweelinck: Cantiones sacrae

These 37 elegant Latin motets greatly expand and enrich the current catalogue listing of Sweelinck, more familiar as innovative organist than composer of choral music. The ardent, expressive voices of this college choir are cleanly but spaciously recorded. Warmly commended. George Pratt
