Christopher Royall (Countertenor) - Paul Nicholson (Orgel) // William Mundy was born about 1530, the son of Thomas, sexton of the London church St Mary-at-Hill and a musician (he was paid 2d in 1540 for the 'prycking' - i.e. writing out - 'of a song-booke') in a church with a strong musical life. Thomas Tallis was working there in 1537 before moving to Waltham Abbey, the last of the monasteries to be dissolved in Henry VIII's campaign to subdue the Church to national sovereignty.
