A fine album of Early Music, not Donna Summer
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2011
The three other reviews of this disc all seem to think it's one of Donna Summer's later albums, and disagree on its quality. I can state with some certainty (I'm listening to it now) that it is in fact a fine recording of an early English masterpiece, with plenty of real music and not too much tedious plainsong stuffed in as filler. This is the Cardinall's Music at what was probably the height of their powers, with none of the occasional infelicities of tone or tuning which have been detected in more recent recordings. Well worth acquiring.
