Recordings

Magnificat has undertaken several successful projects in association with Linn Records, including a recording of Thomas Tallis’ forty-part motet Spem in alium that was hailed as “quite the best” by Gramophone Magazine. The ensemble is currently recording the complete Missae Sex by the sixteenth-century Spanish composer Philippe Rogier, and future plans include further exploration of the English pre-Reformation repertoire.
