First Ensemble that really had me wanting to buy Choral music.
They are magnificent on a revealing system.

I am struggling to find the right version. I am looking for this G P da Palestrina Gloria (Missa Brevis)

@pannonia77

What are you looking for? The recording or the score?
You can find several editions of the score here: https://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Missa_brevis_in_F_(Giovanni_Pierluigi_da_Palestrina)
And here you can find the recording:

Do you mean the two different modes in which they were transcribed? The earlier version was more challenging for sopranos and tenors. We are singing this next month.

It's an E Flat Major

Since in the original publication the Mass is notated using high clefs (treble clef for Soprano, mezzosoprano clef for Alto, alto clef for Tenor and baritone clef for Bass), it is not supposed to be sung at written pitch. Generally such pieces are to be transposed down a fourth, but since the setup of the Tallis Scholars is different from the kind of choir Palestrina composed his masses for (i.e. they use higher voices for each part) they chose a transposition of only a tone.
By the way I noted in the description that they sing the piece one tone below written pitch.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not too fond of this ensemble's resonance. Its clarity is good, but it seems to lack power. Currende's resonance, for example, has more power.
