Allegri: Miserere; Palestrina: Stabat Mater

Allegri: Miserere; Palestrina: Stabat Mater

Goodman; King's College Choir, Cambridge; Willcocks

Allegri's Miserere was jealously guarded by the Papal Choir, until the occasion when Mozart heard it and promptly wrote it out from memory - an astonishing feat, especially for someone of only 14 years of age. This setting is especially remembered for its sensational recurring solo phrases, and there has never been a performance of these solo phrases to match the one in this classic King's recording by the treble Roy Goodman.

"Fabulous is the only word for it."
Gramophone

"I doubt if any recording made by the choir of King's College, Cambridge, in the fertile Willcocks era will prove more enduring than this celebrated performance of Allegri's Miserere."
Gramophone

"The famous 1963 King's performance of Allegri's Miserere, with its equally arresting treble solo so beautifully and serenely sung by Roy Goodman, is now reissued, impressively remastered."
