Synopsis

Amazon.com
The Missa Nasce la gioia mia (based on a madrigal by Italian Renaissance composer G.L. Primavera) and the Missa brevis are among Palestrina's simplest, most accessible Masses--some might find them a bit lightweight, but they are undeniably pretty. The Tallis Scholars give an impeccable performance, especially in the Missa brevis, which features a captivating Benedictus for three voices. --Matthew Westphal

Palestrina Masses: Missa Brevis; Missa Nasce la gioja mia
Bjorn Viberg | European Union | 08/24/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Palestrina Masses: Missa Brevis; Missa Nasce la gioja mia~ Peter Phillips is a wonderful recording and verily one could call Palestrina one if not the best composer for the Catholic Church. The painting on the front is a grand picture of a young woman and the liner notes are well written. Palestrina is such a skilled writer of choral music and one of best writers and composers of this genre of all time. Highly recommended."
