Martin Baker’s recordings of Palestrina with Westminster Cathedral Choir have been highly praised across the world.

Here is a sumptuous recording of works dedicated to the festival of Christmas, the main work being the stunning Missa Hodie Christus natus est - one of Palestrina’s most popular works.

This is music of great devotional beauty, all sung with Westminster Cathedral Choir’s customary finesse and atmospheric reverence.

‘This is a thrilling recording of Palestrina’s music for the Christmas season’ - The Guardian

‘All the familiar qualities that serve to make Westminster unique among Britain’s cathedral choirs are in evidence here … the crucial added ingredient is singing of a passion and conviction that reminds us that this music is the choir’s lifeblood. This is unquestionably one of the glories of the year’ - Goldberg
