Under Henry VIII, royal progresses were both journeys and sonic experiences. Solemn polyphony accompanied the king’s devotions; jubilant songs rang out in great halls; charming miniatures were shared in the intimacy of the privy chamber.
Made in collaboration with the research project that brought together Historic Royal Palaces and specialists from the universities of Newcastle and York, and recorded in the Rutland village of Lyddington where the king himself stayed during two progresses, this album journeys with Henry from palace to province.
Gramophone Award-nominated Ensemble Pro Victoria, under the direction of Toby Ward and guided by Professor Magnus Williamson, vividly capture these Tudor soundscapes in a programme of glorious but often little-known music, including a number of premiere recordings.
