Digital Booklet
The renowned Choir of Magdalen College, Oxford and award-winning consort of viols Phantasm showcase the amazing breadth and diversity of Thomas Tomkins, a masterly voice in English composition. This album includes five verse anthems, jewels in Tomkins’s choral output, with ensemble accompaniment allowing choir and consort to combine forces as they likely once did in the Elizabethan Chapel Royal. Phantasm also performs some of Tomkins’s most striking works for three to six viols, revealing the composer’s very personal approach to the consort style.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
