Description
The York Processional is based on a unique manuscript nearly 650 years old, containing chants sung in processions during church services. These particular chants were used week by week in parish churches in York and all over the north of England, for several centuries until the upheavals of the Reformation.
Then in 1550 a nationwide purge by puritans destroyed all the old service books. Of the thousands of these particular Processionals in use in the north of England, just a single copy has survived.
