Great Cambridge Choirs

These DVDs feature characteristically English performances of varied music. The repertoire starts with the Anglican Evensong and Vespers and there is also a collection of Renaissance music by composers such as Byrd and Weelkes, Palestrina and Josquin.

All aspects of the English choral tradition are brought together here, breathtakingly sung by three famous Cambridge choirs; those of King’s College, Clare College and St. John’s College. Each choir has been filmed singing ‘at home’, in the chapel of their respective colleges.
