Philips: Cantiones sacrae octonis vocibus

English composer Peter Philips spent most of his life abroad and was celebrated all over Europe in his day. Despite this, Philips's music has been neglected since his death in 1628. Of his immense output of vocal music, to this day most people know only a handful of motets from the five-voice Cantiones sacrae (1612). This recording featuring half of the companion volume of eight-voice motets seeks to remedy that situation. These triumphant and highly Italianate settings are performed by Rupert Gough leading the The Choir of Royal Holloway. They are joined by The English Cornett and Sackbut Ensemble, who have gilded so many choral recordings of the music of Gabrieli and Monteverdi in the past.
