Their ability to rivet attention is immediately obvious in an introspective and raptly controlled account of the Missa’s opening Kyrie, while the poignant Agnus Dei highlights the group’s lithe expressivity and impeccable tuning.

Robert White’s Lamentations is home territory for Stile Antico, and, as would be expected, the performance was flawless.

What a sound! Radiant, absolutely focused, extremely rich in overtones and earthy at the same time, it effortlessly filled the every corner of St. Mark’s Church.

Stile Antico are brought out in their full intensity by the program… a recommended release.
