In a selection of motets woven affectingly throughout the glorious five-part Mass, The Gesualdo Six perfectly captures all the power and tenderness of Byrd's compositional voice.
"It is a special strength of this recording that The Gesualdo Six sound pellucid and grand and yet intimate, as though combining two approaches." - Gramophone Magazine, September 2023
