Info & track listings

Winchester is fortunate in possessing two groups of singing-boys of outstanding ability, both now educated together at the Pilgrims’ School in the Cathedral Close.

The Cathedral Choristers and the College Quiristers (the name is an archaic form of ‘chorister’) trace their origins back to the days of William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester from 1367 to 1404. This is the first time that the two groups have sung together in a trebles-only recording.

The music for this recording has been chosen from the Choristers’ and Quiristers’ wide repertoire of anthems for treble voices. In view of the dedication of Winchester College to the Blessed Virgin, and the Cathedral Choristers’ medieval duty of singing Marian antiphons at William of Wykeham’s chantry, it is appropriate that nearly one third of the pieces should be in praise of Mary.
