The Kings Singers 10th Anniversary Concert Disk1

This is album 1 of The King's Singers 10th Anniversary Concert performed on May 1, 1978. While this is an

anniversary concert, it is still typical of a concert by the group.

I have edited this into two different groups. The first part is edited by song omitting the applause. This

was done if you wish to put it on a mp3 player. I edited out the applause due to the fact I hate it! In the

Unedited folder you will find the album "as is" without any editing except for the deletion of silence before

and after a track.

Tracks (Roman numerals indicate the Unedited version)
I. Songs of the Renaissance
1. La Guerre (The War by Jannequin)
2. This Sweet and Merry Month of May (William Byrd)

5. Contrappunto Bestiale Alla Mente (The Animals Sing Counterpoint by Adriano Banchieri)

7. Salut, Dame Sainte
Tout puissant Dieu

other newer albums.

*This was Alastair Thompson's last performance with the group as he left to pursue other things. He was

replaced by Bill (Grayston) Ives.

---> I am looking for Record 2 of this concert (preferably for free down load) <---

This album was recorded from vinyl using Cool Edit Pro. No editing, except as mentioned above, was done, so

there will be pops & hiss evident. The files were then saved as 128k mp3s.
