"Whom have you seen shepherds? Speak, tell us who has appeared! We have seen the new-born and a chorus of Angels praising God. Alleluia. Speak, what have you seen! Tell us of the birth of Christ.

CONTINUUM is the newest and most dynamic early music ensemble on the UK classical music scene.
Under the collaborative leadership of top producer and director Adrian Peacock, the internationally renowned expert in Spanish early music Bruno Turner, and bass-baritone Jamie W. Hall, CONTINUUM brings together twelve of the finest professional consort singers in London, carefully chosen to produce a unique and vibrant sound that celebrates the very best qualities of the English choral tradition and the powerful beauty of the uninhibited human voice.
This all-male ensemble has made 16th century Spanish sacred polyphony and chant the core of its repertoire, and seeks to perform this wonderful music at the original, sonorous low pitch as it would have been heard in Spanish cathedrals and religious institutions during Spain's "Golden Age".
