5.0 out of 5 stars A small ensemble singing beautiful music with intensity Mar 25 2009
By Aquinas - Published on Amazon.com
Being fairly new to this ensemble, I find myself time and time again being astonished at the beauty and intensity of their singing. At first hearings, the De La Rue mass with Gregorian chant interwoven with polyphony appears stronger musically than Brumel - even so, the Brumel is very attractive.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'll have my Brumel medium rare Dec 19 2012
By J. Seare - Published on Amazon.com

This is, in my opinion the best performance by the Clerks Group. Well recoreded with some space but not too much to lose detail yet maintaine the richness of the sonorities in the polyphony. Other recordings of this group are way under cooked like they are singing in a small room with carpet on the ceiling and walls. Great singing with great control and pitch is very good. The male falsettist is not hooty and the basses are rich and supple--very well balenced. I higly recommend this disc.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best! April 23 2007
By Giordano Bruno - Published on Amazon.com

There are two CDs by the Clerk's Group including the de la Rue Requiem. This one also includes the Brumel Requiem, its first recording, and it's a bold exciting piece of polyphony. There is also a CD of the de la Rue Requiem by Ensemble Officium. IMHO The Clerks' Group performance is easily superior, and I've found that most listeners, hearing the two blind, agree. Officium produces a huge, resonant, glorious choral timbre (perhaps with a little studio resonance added) but at the cost of a "generalized" quality both of tuning and of expression. The Clerks' Group coaxes as much emotional intensity out of the standard Latin text of the requiem mass as anyone could hope. See my other review, of the Ensemble Officium disc, for more detail.
