16th century English Renaissance composer.Thomas Tallis worked in almost every genre of English church music of the time. He popularized and applied the rules of European polyphonic music to English music, although links with earlier English composers such as John Taverner are also present in his work. The 40-vocal motet "Spem in alium" is considered one of the most impressive and monumental works of Thales in English music. The name of Tallis is famous in the world by the English vocal ensemble The Tallis Scholars, which specializes in the performance of early European music.
