Stunning performances, full of attention to detail on dynamic and phrasing

A miraculous celebration of choral music of the English Renaissance… it was ravishing.
Colin Clarke, Seen and Heard International
The superb, shining British vocal ensemble Stile Antico…
Zachary Woolfe, New York Times (10 Feb, 2020)
An ensemble of articulate, well-matched voices, expertly, artfully used. That’s what we expect from Stile Antico, and it’s what we get here: outstanding performances, timeless music.
David Vernier, Classics Today (January 2020)
Stile Antico’s performance is flawless, the group’s technical prowess never at the expense of expressive warmth.
Graham Rickson, The Arts Desk (21 December, 2019)
Stile Antico is one of the leaders in this field… the Mass is given its warm fullness of sound by six voice parts, sung here two to a part with exemplary poise and glow.
Richard Fairman, The Financial Times (20 December, 2019)
Sound is clear as a bell, and performances exemplary. This is an easy choice.
Steven Ritter, Audiophile Audition
Stile Antico’s dozen voices sing with polished refinement a mixture of sophisticated Latin and more populist vernacular material on this disc.
SP, The Sunday Times (15 December, 2019)
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.
Terry Blain, BBC Music Magazine (December, 2019)
Each of the Lobo works further showcases Stile Antico’s sublime artistry, the singers’ silken voices rising and falling like new-fallen snow.
Holly Harris, Winnipeg Free Press (October 10, 2019)
Robert White’s Lamentations is home territory for Stile Antico, and, as would be expected, the performance was flawless.

A 12-piece vocal ensemble melds poetry about migration to a set of musical lamentations from the early 17th century with singularly powerful results
