Someone's really pushing Psallentes over the Cistercian monks of Heiligenkreuz... they've used the tag Heiligenkreuz to be included in youtube search results.

And from Mr. James Altena, at Mere Comments:

The Brilliant Classics CD label, which has succeeded Naxos (the latter having moved up to the mid-price range) as God's gift to budget-minded classical music mavens, has licensed and reissued from the small and pricey Signum label a 10-CD set of the complete works of Thomas Tallis by the "Chapelle du Roi" vocal ensemble. It can be ordered from e.g.

http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/main.jsp

which is the most important U.S. web site for classical music.

However, I would strongly recommend instead the following German web site (it does have English instructions):

www.jpc.de

which offers many imported CDs at 1/2 to 1/3 the price of U.S. competitors (including the Tallis set) with a flat shipping rate of 15 Euros regardless of the size of the order (and orders to the U.S. presently discounted an additional 8% from the list price due to the unfavorable dollar-euro s exchange rate.) I have done business with them for four years now; the service is superb, and if any time is defective or shipped in error they reimburse shipping costs as well.

I have several recordings of "Spem in Alium." The best ones are on the Hyperion label with the Winchester Cathedral Choir (for massive sound to bowl one over) and the Gimell label with the Tallis Scholars (for amazing clarity of the interweaving polyphonic strands).

Among other bargains from brilliant Classics are the complete works of Mozart (170 CDs) and Beethoven (85 CDs), each for about only $100 from jpc. the Mozart set is a mixed bag, but more than worth the money; the Beethoven set is excellent in virtually every way (the performances being mostly licensed from the catalogues of EMI, Decca, etc.).
