"A co-founder and twenty-five-year member of the world renowned King's Singers, [Carrington] brings a fresh, live performance focus to a school largely concerned with scholarly contemplation. His interpretations seem to be sensitive to historical accuracy, while catering to a modern aesthetic." -- The Yale Daily News "The performances are excellent ... Carrington--one of the choral world's elite though not known as an early music specialist--is quite at home in this work. His intelligent pacing, wise sense of proportion and remarkable gift for getting the best from a choir make this disc well worth acquiring." -- Early Music America Antonio Bertali lived 1605-1669. This is a world premiere recording of one of his most important works, with choir, organ, period-instrument strings, and brass. A reconstruction of an Easter Sunday mass as it would be performed in Vienna in 1666, the Bertali Mass is presented with additional works by Froberger, Geist, and Vejvanovsky. Live concert recording featuring the Yale Schola Cantorum directed by Simon Carrington, former member and co-founder of the King's Singers.
