About

"On Easter Day, 1043, King Edward the Confessor was crowned in Winchester Cathedral. The Discantus ensemble have here brought back to life the nascent polyphonies of ancient England. These compositions are drawn from the Winchester Tropary, one of the most fabulous musical testimonies of the era. Inserted are two contemporary pieces by composers Pierre Chépélov (b. 1979) and Joel Rust (b. 1989), commissioned by Discantus on texts excerpted from Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy."
