Their diction is crystal clear, and the tone and blend of the ensemble is particularly beautiful… a delicately lyrical close to an evening of exquisitely well-performed music.
Christian Carey, Sequenza 21 (April 17, 2025)
Few efforts will be better than these extremely nuanced and structurally aware performances by the vocal group Stile Antico.
Anthony Pryer, BBC Music Magazine (20 February, 2025)
Stile Antico sings this complex yet elegantly polished music with the group’s usual combination of lushness and focus, stillness and energy, bringing expression and nuance to what can sometimes slip into coolly uniform gorgeousness.
Zachary Woolfe, New York Times (30 January, 2025)
No matter how elaborate the counterpoint, there are no hesitations, no rough edges.
Geoff Brown, The Times (14 January, 2025)
Warmth, emotion and a metrical flexibility all the more striking for being achieved without a conductor. The singers seem telepathically linked…
Richard Morrisson, The Times (19th November, 2024)
We’re delighted to announce that the recipient of our Ensemble Development Bursary 2024-26 is the Bruegel Consort.
Stile Antico are… simply the best ensemble around to listen to in music of this genre….
Barry Creasy, MusicOMH.com (22 March, 2024)
We are delighted to announce the appointment of baritone Gareth Thomas to join Stile Antico! Gareth replaces Will Dawes, who left the group in Summer 2023 after sixteen years.
Ahead our forthcoming concerts and workshops in Newcastle and Leeds, Classical Music magazine has published a feature about our Byrd-related outreach work.
The Stile Antico Foundation is seeking a Youth Trustee for a year’s term intended to commence in May 2024.
Here’s Becky’s report of our wonderful Byrd ‘Come and Sing’ day held at Temple Church, London, as part of last month’s Festival marking 400th years since Byrd’s death.
If the rest is anything like this opening event from Stile Antico, listeners would be well advised to flock to the Temple Church now.
