Astonishingly Good, September 13, 2005
This review is from: Teares of the Muses : Consort Music II (Audio CD)
Unlike the previous reviewer, I will not use this space to denigrate Beethoven, the ridiculousness of which would ruin this review of the lofty and noble tone which Holborne's music deserves. The divine Jordi Savall and Hesperion are perfect, as usual; Holborne clearly deserves to be MUCH better known. His pavans, especially, are achingly beautiful.

Wonderful music making, October 24, 2008
This review is from: Teares of the Muses : Consort Music II (Audio CD)
This collection of Elizabethan consort music follows on from Vol. 1 but whereas that Cd contained works by various composers, Vol. 2, is devoted to the music of Anthony Holborne. Lovers of music of this period should not hesitate. As an introduction to Elizabethan Consort music a better starting point might be vol. 1. However Savall and Hesperion XXI as always give brilliant performances on both Cds for which Aliavox provide an excellent recorded sound. Reccomended unreservedly.
