Leading performers of 17th-century music the Magdalena Consort, Fretwork and His Majestys Sagbutts and Cornetts combine forces under the artistic direction of William Hunt for the box set of their series 'In Chains of Gold'. "In Chains of Gold is a high-quality musical collective project that sheds light on these unknown masterpieces." – Sonograma Praise for Vol. 1 ★★★★★ – "Subtle, seductively supple and sinuous singing and playing… Volume 2 from this dream-team will be eagerly awaited" – Choir and Organ Praise for Vol. 2 ★★★★ Performance ★★★★★ Recording "An ear-tingling fulsomeness that guarantees the disc a splendiferous climax…It sets a marker for all that follows as 'chains of gold' are spun with disarming felicity" – BBC Music Magazine Praise for Vol. 3 "Nicolson's anthem stands as the epitome of all that is best in Bill Hunt's triumphantly successful project." – Early Music Review
