Tenebrae present its BBC Music Magazine award-winning interpretation of Tomás Luis de Victoria’s Requiem Mass for six voices. For many, it represents what Renaissance polyphony is, what it sounds and feels like, and how expressive it can be.
Described as “phenomenal” (The Times) and “devastatingly beautiful” (Gramophone Magazine), Tenebrae is one of the world’s leading vocal ensembles.
