David’s edition of the 86 piece manuscript of consort music by leading 16th century composers such as Senfl, Isaac, Josquin and Pierre de la Rue has recently been published. It is available from Jacks, Pipes and Hammers (contact ruth@recordermail.co.uk, tel.01422 882751) or directly from David via  www.dhatcher.co.uk

The edition’s publication coincided with the Linarol Consort’s two recent concerts of a selection of music from the 4 volumes. It is a wonderful collection with a wide ranging repertoire that can be fully enjoyed by both players and audiences.
