Definitely the best version I found on youtube so far. Perfect intonation, amazing musicality and great harmony (both in musical sense, thanks to Purcell, and in team-harmony sense, thanks to the choir). All these factors make an incomparably beautiful music, indeed.

One of my favourite pieces of music - has me in tears regularly. I've the Tallis Scholars version on my ipod. They do it a bit slower and you can hear every dissonance like a knife through the heart - just magic... Only sung it once - would love to do it again...
