Editorial Reviews
The Guardian, 03,15,2003
"Christophers draws brilliant performances from his singers, both technically assured and vividly impassioned."-
Album Description
In 2004, Harry Christophers and The Sixteen will celebrate 25 years of music making. To commemorate this milestone, CORO has released a handsome, slip-case edition of their original recordings. The haunting tones of Allegri's Miserere are unique and instantly recognizable even to those who know little sacred choral music, and features an other-worldly treble solo. No connoisseur of the choral arts will want to be without this recording of Palestrina's Missa Papae Marcelli. Along with his Stabat Mater it combines exquisite contrapuntal poise with a translucent setting of the words, whereby music and text complement each other to the detriment of neither. The chromaticism and blossoming cadences of Lotti's eight part Crucifixus have made it a work loved by both choirs and listeners.

BEATS FOOTBALL.......2007-05-18
There I was sitting in the car - listening to the football: Derby V Southampton. Saints were winning - thank you God. I was also waiting for my two lads who were in a boxing session.
I turned the radio to Classic FM - and there is was: The Sixteen Miserere. I was mesmorised....spell - bound by the interconnecting harmonies and the truly inspirational melodies. I was hooked and listened to the whole piece.
I eventually turned back to the Football. We lost on penalties. But I had discovered a musical phenomenon and bought the CD.

This is one of those choral recordings that makes you slow down and say "wow" at the conclusion.
