The final instalment in a celebrated three-part series by Contrapunctus, directed by Owen Rees, exploring the music of the Baldwin Partbooks, a remarkable treasure-house of Tudor sacred polyphony, some of which is not found anywhere else.
The collection consists of almost 170 works collected by John Baldwin, a lay clerk at St George’s Chapel, Windsor between 1575 and 1581.

"They are in cracking form here, with no discernible weak link in the ensemble: honey-toned and purposeful sopranos, assertive countertenors and everything on down to match." - Gramophone Magazine, May 2021.
