This review is from: Amner: Cathedral Music (Audio CD)
There's a wonderful unknown (not in a Donald Rumsfeld kind of way) quality to Amner's Cathedral Music. Having lived in Ely - in John Amner Close, in fact - for some time, I thought it only right and proper that I investigate the man and his work and apart from this fabulous collection of pieces and a few snippets about his life (1579-1641; organist & choirmaster at Ely Cathedral 1610-1641) there is virtually nothing...

This helps. Really.

The choral arrangements here are so sparkling and unique that to colour one's perceptions by bringing in the prejudices and preconceptions associated with other artists would be to undermine what is a beautifully delicate work.

Just the first few seconds of Te Deum (Cesar's Service) will take you high up into the cathedral's Norman arches, beyond the clerestory and out past the Lady Choir, before embracing the stonework, the timber, the glass and the lead, and becoming a part of the very fabric itself. Well, maybe not. But it does have a damn good go.
