The Parsons Affayre was established in 2009, and is Australia's newest vocal ensemble specialising in the performance of Renaissance Polyphony. The group particularly focuses on the performance and recording of neglected repertoire of that period.
The latest recording by The Parsons Affayre is Stabat Mater - a journey through the English Renaissance. It includes the world premiere recording of William Byrd's beautiful Domine exaudi orationem meam et clamor, and the newest recordings of William Cornysh's Stabat Mater and William Horwood's Gaude flore virginali.
