Awards and reviews
September 2019
There are arresting ideas…But Amner rarely approaches the greatness of his peers such as Gibbons, and his ‘professional efficiency’ sometimes rubs off on the Dubliners under Mark Keane…Fretwork inform the viola-accompanied numbers with warmth and wisdom.
July 2019
A good introduction to the composer…Most impressive are the pair of five-voice anthems Thus sings that heavenly quire and The heavens stood all amazed, which blend madrigalian word-paining with intricate counterpoint…Performances by the Dublin Consort Singers are neat and carefully shaped by director Mark Keane, the tone throughout clean and unfussy. Fretwork are a luxury addition for the verse anthems.
30th June 2019
He’s well worth a listen...straddling ground between those two elegant setters of English texts, Tallis and Gibbons. The Dublin Consort Singers and the viol consort Fretwork present everything in the printed edition, plus a little more, and Keane directs taut, clear readings.
