     I Cantori Conversi 
     director: Keith Wright
During his lifetime Michael East had more in print than any other composer.  Apart from curiosities little now survives in modern editions.  'Awake' comes from a 1624 set of part-books in the University library and the Italian madrigals are from the anthology 'Harmonia Celeste' (1583), a 1628 reprint of which was bought last century by the Reid Bequest.
