From the publisher's promotional material : "Several manuscripts survive to testify to Henry's love of music but the most important is the Royal Choirbook now British Library Royal MS II E XI. This magnificent collection of motets was presented to the 27-year-old Henry and Catherine of Aragon in 1518. lt is exceptional for the sheer size and luxury of its production its exquisite and ingenious heraldic illuminations and not least its personal significance to Henry. As part of The Folio Society's commemoration of the quincentenary of his accession this Choirbook has been reproduced for the first time in facsimile a precious link with the great musical legacy of King Henry VIII.In 1515 the Venetian envoy Sebastiano Giustiniano was invited to attend High Mass in the king's private chapel at Hampton Court Palace. He wrote that it was 'gloriously sung by His Majesty's choristers whose voices are really more divine than human. They did not chant but sang like angels and as for the counter-bass voices I do not think they have their equals in the world. Indeed the choral music produced at the court of Henry VIII was thought by many to surpass what was being produced anywhere else in Europe. Fortunately the most magnifìcent musical book associated with Iienry's reign - the Royal Choirbook a book of motets composed for the young king and Queen Catherine of Aragon - has survived.This book's magnifìcent frontispiece represents the Tudor dynasty through the symbolism of roses blooming in the garden of England with the crowned rose ruling supreme. Petrus de Opitus an Italian merchant and his son Benedictus an organist were responsible for commissioning the Royal Choirbook - and the visual compliments to the king it contains are a testament to their own ambitions. Their lavish tribute extends to the musical and literary content. Copy No. 28. Facsimile as new; in a slipcase which has several minor scuffs and small indentations but is otherwise Very Good.
