The Tallis Scholars and Peter Phillips probably need no introduction anymore. In the press they are hailed as the rock stars of vocal renaissance music and praised because of their crystal-clear sound, their emotional expressiveness and impeccable intonation. Entirely in their best English choir tradition they tackle the Eton Choir Book. On the programme there is music by, among others, John Nesbett, John Browne, William Cornysh and Robert Wylkynson. The latter became in 1500 informator choristarum (choir master) at Eton College.  Wylkynson’s Salve Regina belongs to the last pieces in the Eton Choir Book and was possibly penned into the manuscript by the composer himself.
