"wonderful music, wonderfully performed ...
sit back and let these glorious sounds fill your
ears and lift your spirits."
GRAMOPHONE
Miraculously, the Eton Choirbook survived
Henry VIII's ransacking of the monasteries.
Thanks to its survival, the sacred music of
the English fifteenth-century is still with us,
conjuring up the atmosphere and spirit of
the glorious cathedrals for which it was
written. It also gives a tantalising glimpse
of a wealth of choral music which was lost.
"wonderful music, wonderfully performed ...
sit back and let these glorious sounds fill your
ears and lift your spirits."
