Music reviews of Palestrina: Masses (Box Set)Music Review: Where's the Beef? Right Here, in a Bargain Box!Pro Cantione Antiqua has always delivered a robust, almost beefy sound, as if the all-male ensemble had just shed their "old school" rugby togs and put on choir robes. With steady changes in personnel, especially among the countertenors, Pro Cantione Antiqua has been performing since the 1960s, making then 'antique' indeed by Early Music standards. What they do, they usually do well, although they are limited in their expressive, affective range and they tend to sing most things in a kind of default tempo that's neither slow nor fast. They're head and shoulders better, most of the time, than the Westminster Choir or the Oxford Camerata, and I usually find them less mushy than the Tallis Scholars. They're nowhere close to The Clerks' Group or the Orlando Consort, or the Hilliard Ensemble on its better days, but all in all they're a joy to hear.
