Preco Preheminencie Lyrics

Preco Preheminencie

This piece was written by John Dunstable, and its first public performance appears to have been on August 21, 1416 to celebrate the victory of Henry V at the Siege of Harfleur and the Battle of the Seine. Both Henry and Emperor Sigismund were present at the Canterbury Cathedral celebrations. At the time this was a revolutionary style of music with long chords which became known as the English Sound.
