Review:
 

The long-established tradition of devotion to the Virgin Mary resulted in some superb settings from Spanish composers. Supreme amongst them, Victoria set some of his finest music to Marian texts. This recording showcases works for eight parts, some of them for two antiphonal choirs discreetly accompanied by organ and bajón, all displaying the magnificent fervent sonorities for which he is famous.
".. the singers preserve impeccable purity of line while embracing harmonic textures of humane richness and poignancy."
Choir & Organ, April 06
"The version of the Magnificat that ends the recording would be enough to convert this into the unrivalled reference work of the discography devoted to the greatest Spanish composer of the Renaissance."
Goldberg Magazine February 06
"Excellent blend, shape and ensemble . . . , as is a sense of real joy in performing the repertory, that is sometimes lacking in recordings of sacred choral Music."
Early Music Magazine April/May 06
"You could say it was music that Harry Christophers was born to conduct ."
BBC Radio 3, CD Review
"...a wonderful opportunity to hear previously unrecorded repertoire and to gain a much fuller understanding of a single renaissance master." The Gramophone
