About this listen

Collected for use in the chapel of Cambridge University's Peterhouse college in the 1630s and hidden during the Civil War, the Peterhouse Partbooks represent one of the most important manuscript collections of sacred choral music from the period. In this podcast, Raymond Bisha presents performances of those works by the Peterhouse choir, affording a snapshot of its chapel's distinctive musical heritage, with recently unearthed music heard alongside the foundations of a tradition still very much alive in today’s Anglican church.
