Alas, the music was recorded in a concert during a music festival rather in during a Mass or singing of the hours.  This is an Alma Redemptoris Mater for 6 voices by Diego Ortiz (+ c. 1570) performed by Cantar Lontano and Marco Mencoboni at the Poesis Festival in 2012.

By contrast, here is another piece of music often heard in a church, but also recorded (I guess) in a concert.
