The Tallis Mass Puer natus is also the centrepiece of a new recording by The Sixteen. David Skinner has provided an admirable sketch of the historic background so that we can imagine the splendour of the noble gathering in St Paul’s Cathedral on Christmas Day 1554, with the combined choirs of the royal houses of England and Spain. The motets that lead up to the Mass include works by Pierre de Manchicourt, Francisco Guerrero as well as Tallis himself and his contemporary John Sheppard. This is an outstanding performance: The Sixteen have entered into the life of a great liturgy. There is a spaciousness of sound and a quality of contemplation that are quite remarkable: the power and control of the magnificently designed Gloria, for example, are breathtaking. A splendid achievement!'
