Info & track listings

Interest in folk culture was a product of the Romantic movement. The first manifestations were in Germany… The English Folk Song Society was founded in 1898, and the systematic collection of folk-songs began. ‘

Literate’ musicians such as Cecil Sharp, Ralph Vaughan Williams and Percy Grainger went out into the rural areas of Britain and noted down traditional songs from the lips of the singers who remembered them… Many collections were issued.

…The Rodolfus Choir is made up of young people up to the age of 25 chosen from past and present members of the Eton Choral Courses for prospective choral scholars. Their founder and director, Ralph Allwood, is Precentor and Director of Music at Eton College.
