4 The Tallis Scholars were founded in 1973 by their director, Peter Phillips. Through their nearly 60 recordings and 2000 concert performances, they have established themselves as the leading exponents of Renaissance sacred music internationally. They perform in both sacred and secular venues, giving a hundred concerts in their 40th anniversary year - across the globe. The group further celebrates this anniversary with two commissions from Gabriel Jackson and Eric Whitacre, and with special CD releases. In February 1994 the group performed on the 400th anniversary of the death of Palestrina in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome, where Palestrina had trained as a choirboy and later worked as Maestro di Cappella. The concerts were recorded by Gimell Records, a label set up by Peter Phillips and Steve Smith in 1980 solely to record the group. Their ongoing project to record Josquin s complete cycle of masses, when completed, will run to 9 discs. The group continue to develop their exclusive sound and bring fresh interpretations to modern composers such as Pärt, Tavener, Whitacre and Jackson. Sir John Tavener was born in His musical education took place in the midst of Modernist fervor, a movement of which he felt an instinctive and increasing mistrust. The first work that brought him to widespread attention, The Whale (1966), was premiered in 1968 by the London Sinfonietta at their inaugural concert and was later released on The Beatles Apple Records label. Although many of his early works were inspired by the mystical aspects of Roman Catholicism, Tavener came to believe that the Western Christian Church was a corrupted and corrupting force. Following his conversion to Orthodox Christianity in 1977, Tavener produced a slew of works heavily influenced by Orthodox liturgical texts, Russian and Greek writers and themes, and the Orthodox tone systems. From the late 1990s his interest in the universalist philosophy, which embraces all great religious traditions, led him to embrace an even wider range of influences. In his most recent work Tavener appears to be entering a new phase of development, with terse, compressed musical statements replacing the grandeur of earlier pieces like the seven-hour Veil of the Temple (2002).
