--Spem in alium--
This piece, Spem in alium numquam habui (I have no faith in any other [than God]), is Tallis' most famous piece. It is a 40-part motet, set up for eight five-part choirs. It is a masterpiece. Tallis blended the chordal with the polyphonic here, to great effect. The number of voices makes for interesting effects, particularly when done in cathedral settings. Several stories have appeared about why this work was composed, but in the end, it remains unknown.
--Lamentations of Jeremiah--
This is actually two motets, most likely not composed for church use. Some have interpreted as a lamentation on the Tudor suppression of the Catholic faith, which might have made the Lamentations more a composition for private rather than public performance at the time. It has no particular setting for liturgy, even when the Lamentations might be called for (such as at Tenebrae services).
--Other music--
Other pieces included on this disc include Tallis' Videte miraculum, Dum transisset sabbatum, Honor virtus et potestas, and Loquebantur variis linguis. These responsories are among Tallis' works that might have been done during the reign of Mary, when Roman Catholics were once again in power and encouraged.
--Liner Notes--
The notes are very basic for this disc - there is a brief essay on Tallis, followed by the words of the pieces both in Latin and in English translation. There are pictures of the men and boys choir of King's College, Cambridge, as well as a photograph of Stephen Cleobury, but no biographical or historical description of the group. There is a woodcut reproduced of Thomas Tallis.
--King's College Choir--
This world-famous choir is based at the chapel of King's College, and consists of choral scholars, male students and chorister boys from the King's College School located not far away. The choir sings a regular rota of services in the chapel, and performs a concert and recording schedule in addition to this (and rehearsals!). They are perhaps best known for their annual broadcast of Lessons and Carols at holiday time.
This is a remarkable piece of music, well performed.
