Product Notes

It was largely through the efforts of 'Captain' Henry Cooke that the choir of the Chapel Royal was successfully restored at the Restoration in 1660. He invoked ancient press-gang legislation to purloin promising choirboys from cathedrals across the country. Two of them, Pelham Humfrey and John Blow, went on to write ground-breaking music.
