Path of Miracles by Joby Talbot
Tenebrae (choral ensemble), directed by Nigel Short
The 62-minute a cappella choral work, "Path of Miracles" depicts the journey of medieval pilgrims to Santiago, Spain, resting place of St. James. Extensive use of ostinato patterns, soaring soprano lines, and Tenebrae's incomparible vocal virtuosity make this CD a must-have for anyone who likes contemporary choral music.
One reviewer wrote: "I would go as far to suggest that Talbot’s “Path of Miracles” is to the first decade of the 21st-century what Arvo Pärt’s "Passio" was twenty years earlier." (Classics.com) Another said, "Path of Miracles is little short of a musical miracle itself."
This hybrid super-audio CD (SACD) plays in both a standard CD player, and those equipped for SACD.

In this 2006 live performance, Sir Colin Davis returned to the work he had first recorded in 1966.

This stirring new account is sure to set a standard for years to come. Includes multichannel SACDs and bonus DVD!
