hello0770 -you are oblivious to the World,all round the world are places to meditate and concentrate on silence and let go of the World.However,do not do it you might not find it where you left it.
This forty piece motet is superb. Tallis was a roman catholic and wrote this piece for Queen Elizabeth I. The words themselves asks, as far as Tallis dares, to be less intolerant of his faith. Or so the accompanying verbosity says on my CD version.
I have this recording! Its magnificent! Love the sea rolling in: I was in hospital once, and was very close to passing on. I dreamt that I heard this being sung,from a Holy Island somewhere across the mist shrouded sea. I recovered, and a few years later my girlfriend and I found ourselves caught between tides on Lindisfarne,the Holy Island! She asked what we were to do for 5 hrs. It was like a waking dream4me, this music playing over'n'over in my mind. That and a good dinner to boot! lol Bob
Sublime choral composition, ably performed by the Tallis Scholars. I have performed some of the world's gretest music...but not this. A cartain vacancy there...
This is like listening to a brief moment of what Heaven must sound like, really very beautiful.
Thank you.

Spem in Alium"
Spem in alium numquam habui praeter in te
Deus Israel
qui irasceris
et propitius eris
et omnia peccata hominum in tribulatione dimittis
Domine Deus
Creator coeli et terra
respice humilitatem nostram
