Martin Baker: Westminster Cathedral Choir - Palestrina: Missa Dum complerentur & other music for Whitsuntide

The music of the sixteenth-century composer Palestrina is still today at the heart of many of the Roman Catholic services sung all around the world. The congregation at Westminster Cathedral is particularly fortunate to hear on a regular basis this inspirational music sung by one of the finest choirs in the world, and this album focuses on music for Whitsuntide. (Whit Sunday commemorates the coming of the Holy Spirit in the form of flames to the Apostles, as recorded in the New Testament.)This is glorious music and for it Martin Baker has drawn the best from his glorious choir.
