Sing and enjoy the tranquillity of the cathedral setting, more appropriatlty sung during a service or as part of a quiet reflection period. Your religion, faith and beleifs are your on, make of them what you will... there is after all only one ultimate truth, which in summary is Love. Not negativity, critisism or conditoned thought.

Very beautiful. Good job.

I wonder if the performance would have been better without music. I guess it depends on the conductor.

@crooksby : I agree that Tallis's piece is beautiful. Ehrman's work is flawed. He is making money riding a wave that is trying to merge religion and diminish Christianity. How convenient that in a syncretistic age these authorities know better than all who've gone before us about Christianity's origins. Alternate gospels and traditions in the early church were rejected because they were not accurate. What is at stake here is the gospel which is the power of salvation to every one who believes.

As with a Russian church choir, the handful of people seen here are able to fill a huge church with their beautiful voices. Waves of sound rising and falling, human and divine intersecting. Magnificent.

My choir sings this frequently for Mass, as it should be. I sing tenor and the lines on nobis pignus datur up to the top F are almost overwheming to sing emotionally and spiritually. Its really something, like a cry to God from the heart reaching up. It actually affets you even more as a singer than a listener in the midst of the sound. I could go on and on.

Absolutely beautiful, another wonderful piece of music by one of the greatest English Renaissance composers, and in the right setting as it would have been sung some 500 odd years ago. Oustanding.
