About

Nico Muhly and The Tallis Scholars present ‘No Resting Place’, a collection of world-premiere recordings of works that Muhly wrote for The Tallis Scholars over the last 10 years, by invitation of their director Peter Phillips. Phillips says that Muhly ‘immediately understood our particular sound. A succession of masterpieces followed, each as powerful as the last.’ The title work, No Resting Place, is a setting of Jeremiah’s Lamentations, interspersed with contemporary interviews with people from the Windrush generation. Recordare, Domine also sets texts from Lamentations, while Marrow is a setting of Psalm 63. Rough Notes, using cold textures, austere counterpoint and unstable harmonies, draws from Captain Scott’s diary on his doomed mission to the Antarctic. Prosperitie was written to celebrate Peter Phillips’ 70th birthday, and A Glorious Creature praises the glory of the soul. This album marks the start of a new collaboration between The Tallis Scholars and Linn.

... Muhly’s range of moods and textures, all of them finessed into greater eloquence by Phillips’s wonderful ensemble.
