Tallis

York Art Gallery has undergone a revamp and has an ambitious program of exhibitions. The current one has been curated by the Kaiser Chiefs [the band not the football team] and includes a work by Janet Cardiff that has forty speakers in a room for a playing of Thomas Tallis motet for 40 voices. So you wonder around hearing individual voices or walk to the centre and hear the whole thing. It is really good. https://www.cardiffmiller.com/artworks/inst/motet.html
