Where it came from
Released in 1968, this record was part of the broader Music of the Court, Homes and Cities of England series on the His Master's Voice HQS label. This ambitious collection was curated to provide a sonic tour of British history, linking specific musical compositions to the aristocratic estates and regional centers where they were originally performed. Volume 5 focuses on the musical legacies of Hatfield House and Hengrave Hall, two sites deeply significant to the development of English consort music and secular song during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.
The recording features various ensembles specializing in early music, reflecting the mid-century British movement to revive period-accurate performance styles for Renaissance works. By highlighting the specific patronage of these great houses, the production sought to contextualize the work of composers like John Wilbye, who resided at Hengrave Hall, within the social and architectural environments of their time. Upon release, the series was well-regarded by musicologists and enthusiasts for its educational ambition and for bringing relatively obscure chamber works to a wider audience through the HMV high-fidelity catalog.
