...especially valuable in the brief Thomas Tallis Heare the Voyce and Prayer. The singing of both choirs was strong and round. The composition itself has a hint of the genius found in the famous 40-part motet Spem in alium. By the last work of the evening. Thomas Morley's Service for the Burial of the Dead, the singers were well warmed up.

The gathering of legislators is truly a parliament of fowls, with the Earl of Manchester (Robert Morley) as a peacock of surpassing foppishness. The engagements between the Royalists and the Roundheads are conveyed with lapidary detail, down to the last cavalryman...
