Product Description The Binchois Consort presents a disc that demonstrates the beauty and grandeur of the music performed daily in princely chapels of fifteenth-century England. It illustrates the sheer variety of types of singing, some of it virtuosic in its brilliance. Specifically it offers sacred ceremonial pieces written either for Henry V or to invoke the saintly patron of the House of Lancaster, John of Bridlington. Scholarly notes by Philip Weller place this music firmly in its historical context, and the Binchois performances represent the highest standard of early music singing of the present day. Every nuance is considered and each phrase is relished in this immaculately polished disc. Review The Binchois Consort have established themselves as one of the very finest ensembles in the field. --Gramophone
