5.0 out of 5 stars A Merrie Noyse Indeed, 25 May 2004
Magdalen College Choir's recording of music by Orlando Gibbons provides a fascinating view of the works of a composer who was at the very forefront of the development of early baroque English church music. Long undervalued by record labels, Gibbons' music is performed here with impressive freshness and vitality by Magdalen Choir under the direction of Bill Ives.

The addition of the forces of the viol consort, Fretwork, brings to the music a richness of sonority which provides an insight into the sound which Gibbons may originally have conceived (other recent recordings of this music have opted for organ accompaniment) and demonstrates the rhythmic complexity of his highly nuanced contrapuntal writing to its best effect.

The performance of the soloists shows an innate understanding of the particular nature of Gibbons' vocal writing, demonstrating the importance in this music for the solo lines to be fully integrated into the ensemble and yet stand in relief from it.

What ultimately makes the CD such a success is Bill Ives' mustering of the various forces to create a very tight and dynamic feeling of ensemble, making it the definitive recording of Gibbon's church music.
