The Queen’s Six releases their debut album with a sumptuous selection of music from the golden age of English polyphony.
Recorded in the extraordinary surroundings of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle – where each member of The Queen’s Six is a Lay Clerk – Music of the Realm features six composers associated with the royal court of Queen Elizabeth I, from whom the group gets its name.
For their first Resonus album the group have selected a programme of both well and lesser-known works by six composers who wrote music for and during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I – William Byrd, Thomas Tallis, Thomas Tomkins, Thomas Weelkes, Thomas Morley and Orlando Gibbons. The recording is accompanied by an essay from early music scholar and conductor, Peter Phillips.
„The close musical rapport that develops when six men sing together every day, as the Queen’s Six do, is very much in evidence on this, their impressive debut album, recorded at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, where they are lay clerks in the choir. They bring seamless blend and balance to music from the reign of Elizabeth I, from whom they take their name. Tallis, Byrd, Tomkins, Morley, Gibbons and Weelkes are all represented, with the familiar set against some rarer examples – for instance Morley’s O amica mea, a gloriously sensual setting of frankly comic words from the Song of Songs: “O my love, your hair is like a flock of goats moving down Mount Gilead”.“ (Stephen Pritchard, The Guardian)
