5.0 out of 5 stars serene, 12 May 2004
By A Customer
A disc that's been around years and never palls. The Lark Ascending is played to perfection and seems, every time you hear it, to be a great work. The rest of the programme is enchanting, the Fantasia is moving. A CD you'll play endlessly.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Tallis Fantasia?, 7 Nov 2008
By Lordy (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
Whilst all the reviews are 5 star for this cd, I think it is worth noting a couple of points that may be helpful for anyone not particularly well aquainted with RVW. For my money the version of the Tallis Fantasia on this disc is the best I have heard from the many available. You really get the sense of awsome grandeur and spirituality that I think were intended. Many versions, by really great conductors/orchestras somehow fall short. For that reason alone this is an essential purchase. However, as an added bonus you also get one of my favourite RVW pieces, the very beautiful and moving Dives and Lazarus, which must be one of the most lovely melodies in English music.

5.0 out of 5 stars perfect, 9 May 2007
By Cloud 9 (North Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
I have had a 2nd hand vinyl copy of this for years and can never decide which of these pieces I love the most, they make me feel so happy. They sound like one of those warm summer afternoons that go on forever. I'm now going to get the cd so I can put it on my i-pod and take it with me everywhere.

All the performances on this CD are excellent. Although originally recorded 35 years ago the sound is still as fresh as Iona Brown's violin playing is wonderful.
