Progressing from shellac through vinyl, my favoured medium for music is now the audio CD

King's College Chapel Choir - A Festival Of Lessons And Carols, As Sung In King's College Chapel Upon Christmas Eve, 1958
The notes say that this album was the follow up to the earlier Ago release of the Festival of Lessons and Carols at King's College Chapel on RG 39, which was directed by Boris Ord and released in 1954. This 1959 issue was also issued in stereo (ZRG 5190), having been recorded on the 22nd and 23rd of December 1958. The Capel choir is made up of men and boys from the King's College choir.

This video of the Invitatory appears to be correct for this record, though the credited label is Beulah, who may have acquired the rights.

Division-Musick - Musicke And Mirth: The Art Of Diminution In England In The 17th Century
From the notes:

"”Division-Musick“ is a term used by Christopher Simpson during the 17th century to describe a typically English improvisatory style of diminution. Musicians generally used short bass melodies called grounds as the basis for intricate and virtuoso diminutions, beginning with simple and slow melodies over a bass melody, and ending with very fast and virtuosic diminutions after a varying number of repetitions of the melody.

"Both singers and instrumentalists practiced this art of diminution, but the preferred instrument for divisions was the so-called ”division viol“.

"This CD aims to give some audible insight into English virtuosity in the Baroque era."
