@Worrell057 apperently you have to be athiest, or at leat not christian, to be a member of the tallis scholars. that is why it is perfect, but alot of times theres no soul behind it.
@musicmister20102010 I follow you, but you're kidding about having to be non-Christian to be a Tallis Scholar singer, right? Why on earth would an atheist or non-believer have any desire to sing songs of praise and worship to God and to Jesus Christ? Most atheists I know aren't just non-believers, but anti-God.
Music is something different from faith. You can love this type of music and be an atheist, just like I am. AC/DC sings Highway To Hell but that does not mean that they are satanists, right?
I've heard them several times in Manhattan; at St. Mary the Virgin (doing Victoria Requiem Mass a6, and also a couple of times at St. Ignatius, Park Ave. (Flemish and English stuff).
At St. Mary's, I've never encountered a quiter NY audience of perhaps 1,000 people. They sat utterly transfixed, as the choir provided "auditory incense" for our ears and delectation! Stunning polyphonic singing.
Magic, just magic. A feast for the ears and for the soul

One of my favorite pieces of all time. Makes me cry every time I hear it and this is one of the best renditions I've ever heard. Brilliant!

This is tagged as Baroque, which is an error. How can the poster correct this tag?
Appropriate tags could be:
Renaissance; English Tudor music; Polyphony; A Capella music.
Or other.

too bad your not allowed to believe any of what the music is saying, in order to be a tallis scholar.

"If ye love me" from 6'00" is one of the most favorite tunes.
The Tallis Scholars sings the word very importantly.
