To celebrate their 10th anniversary, the twelve members of Stile Antico present twelve tracks of their personal favourites, drawn from five centuries of glorious repertoire. Each member has written a paragraph explaining their choice and why they love to sing it.

"The performances are second to none, rivetingly presented with all the skill of master musicians who have been doing this for years-the miracle is that they are all young, and yet still are able to penetrate the essence of these wonderful works. Need I say more?" Audiophile Audition *****

"The singing is beautifully tidy and expressive, and the CD is a useful way to decid which of their CDs you would like to explore further." (Early Music Review)
