With more than four decades of performance and a catalogue of award-winning recordings, Peter Phillips and The Tallis Scholars have done more than any other group to establish sacred vocal music of the Renaissance as one of the great repertoires of Western classical music.

Based in Cambridge, England, they have sought to bring Renaissance works to a wider audience in churches, cathedrals, and venues on every continent. These include the Royal Albert Hall; the Sistine Chapel; the Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall, New York; the Philharmonic Hall, Berlin; Saint Mark’s, Venice; Seoul Arts Centre; Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and Wigmore Hall, London; Royal Concertgebouw, Amsterdam; Beijing Concert Hall; Megaron, Athens; and the Sydney Opera House.

The Tallis Scholars continue to develop their exclusive sound, praised by reviewers for its supple clarity and tone, and to bring fresh interpretations to music by contemporary as well as past composers, such as Pärt, Tavener, Whitacre, Muhly, and Jackson.
