Peter Dijkstra was inducted into choral singing as a boy treble by his father, who ran a boys' choir in Drenthe. After his conservatory studies he formed The Gents before working with other European vocal ensembles and orchestras including the BBC Singers . The Gents is an all-male choir, and here they work through several pieces from the English Renaissance repertoire. Unfortunately the singers are not individually credited except on the two "Eliza" songs, but their mastery of English Plainsong is exemplary, and the countertenor on this example is beautiful.
After the instrumental version, they sing Christe qui Lux es et Dies:
