The group is noted for its clear textures, rhythmic precision, and historically informed approach to performance. Founded to explore music from the medieval, renaissance and baroque eras, the ensemble has developed a reputation for combining scholarly insight with expressive musicality. The Sixteen regularly records and tours repertoire ranging from plainchant and early polyphony to Renaissance motets and later choral masterpieces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis release collects Christmas music from medieval and Renaissance Europe performed by The Sixteen under the direction of Harry Christophers. The program features a mixture of English carols and continental compositions, presented in arrangements and performances that highlight period style and vocal clarity. Recorded on May 7 and 9, 1987, the album includes both well known carols and lesser heard liturgical pieces, making it a representative survey of seasonal music of the eras. The cover reproduces Mattia Preti's painting The Adoration of the Magi, reinforcing the historical and devotional character of the collection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.\u003cbr\u003ePuer natus est nobis\u003cbr\u003e3:06\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2.\u003cbr\u003eNowell, nowell: In Bethlem\u003cbr\u003e2:16\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3.\u003cbr\u003eGaudete\u003cbr\u003e1:25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4.\u003cbr\u003eNesciens Mater\u003cbr\u003e4:52\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e5.\u003cbr\u003eThe Song of the Nuns of Chester\u003cbr\u003e3:09\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.\u003cbr\u003eCoventry Carol\u003cbr\u003e3:22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7.\u003cbr\u003eThe Boar's Head Carol\u003cbr\u003e1:27\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e8.\u003cbr\u003eVidete miraculum\u003cbr\u003e9:48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9.\u003cbr\u003eQuem pastores laudavere\u003cbr\u003e2:17\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10.\u003cbr\u003ePueri, concinite\u003cbr\u003e1:52\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e11.\u003cbr\u003eO magnum mysterium\u003cbr\u003e2:22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e12.\u003cbr\u003eResonent in laudibus\u003cbr\u003e1:19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e13.\u003cbr\u003eIn dulci jubilo\u003cbr\u003e2:46\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14.\u003cbr\u003eRiu, riu chiu\u003cbr\u003e2:15\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e15.\u003cbr\u003eNesciens Mater\u003cbr\u003e5:49\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e16.\u003cbr\u003eOmnes de Saba\u003cbr\u003e3:20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor CD Player\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Musical Heritage Society","offers":[{"title":"Used In Sleeve","offer_id":51394571960598,"sku":"133558","price":14.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/202666204632454scan.jpg?v=1780805708","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/the-sixteen-christmas-music-from-medieval-and-renaissance-europe","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
