A Banquet of Voices: Music for Multiple Choirs

by Cambridge Singers, John Rutter

Overview

John Rutter conducts up to 40 voices on A Banquet of Voices, a splendid collection of more than 400 years of music. Rutter, with the Cambridge Singers, performs the Tallis 40-part motet and other early polychoral classics by Guerrero, Scheidt and Phillips. Included are rare pieces for double, triple and quadruple choirs dating from the 16th and 17th centuries. Then from the 18th and 19th centuries, Rutter includes pieces by Brahms and Mendelssohm as well as Bach's double-choir motet, "Singet dem Herrn." ~ MusD
