TAVERNER
Founded by Andrew Parrott in 1973, the Taverner Choir slowly grew to become the Taverner Choir, Consort and Players. As pioneering specialists in a wide range of music from before Mozart et al the groups soon became a major performing and recording presence in the classical music world. At all stages the group's music-making has aimed to take account of up-to-date scholarship, and not least that of Parrott’s own groundbreaking research.
