Product description
Tewkesbury Abbey Schola takes on the English Renaissance composer Thomas Weelkes with a delightful mix of sacred choral music that will transport you back in time faster than a DeLorean hitting 88mph. The album kicks off with a bang(?) as Weelkes' intricate harmonies and lush melodies weave their way through your earholes like a fleet of Renaissance fairies on speed. The Schola's vocal prowess shines brighter than a glitter-covered disco ball, hitting those high notes with the precision of a surgeon and the gusto of a drunk karaoke enthusiast. Tracks like "When David Heard" and "Hosanna to the Son of David" showcase Weelkes' knack for stirring the soul with his profound lyrics and masterful composition. It's like being serenaded by angels while simultaneously getting a history lesson on 16th century England - truly the best of both worlds. However, not all is sunshine and lollipops on this album. Some tracks veer dangerously close to church-y cheese, with enough organ solos to make even the staunchest churchgoer cringe. But fear not, dear listener, for the Schola's impeccable performance and infectious energy will have you tapping your toes and humming along in no time. Overall, Tewkesbury Abbey Schola's rendition of Thomas Weelkes' sacred choral music is a delightful romp through the past that will leave you feeling uplifted, inspired, and maybe even a little bit enlightened. So grab your goblet of mead, crank up the volume, and let the music take you on a journey through time and space.
