About

Francisco Guerrero is still insufciently well known by comparison to his great contemporary and compatriot Victoria. El León de Oro here afrms his rightful place in the history of the Golden Age of Spanish polyphony.

Awards and reviews

April 2021

The 38-strong Spanish choir produces a sound that is rich yet at the same time remarkably intimate and crystalline. The group’s honorary director is Peter Phillips and something of the silvery polish of his ensemble The Tallis Scholars seems to have rubbed off here.
4 out of 5 stars (Performance) / 5 out of 5 stars (Recording)

July/August 2021

As a broad view of Guerrero’s enormous work, this single disc is ideal. Highly recommended.

April 2021

The result is a delightfully rich sonic bath that departs significantly from many British ensembles’ approach.
