This might have been chosen for me today, I need all the mercy I can get! Thank you Russ.

Love this piece. Don't know if the Mozart story is true or not, but it's a great story :-)

For my taste, the ritornello choir soprano's vibrato stands out a bit - she doesn't match the others, which I find interesting. Beautiful sound, though. Who is the group?

How snarky of me!
What I *meant* to say was, what a lovely piece! And these people do it beautifully.

I must have been in a hair-splitting mood this morning ... my ears are permanently tuned to the Tallis Scholars performance version of this piece, and the difference was very apparent to my ears.

Glad you like, fellas.
