Three British musicians and scholars founded Pro Cantione Antiqua in the '60's. They were tenor James Griffett, countertenor Paul Esswood, and conductor Mark Brown, joined by conductor and musicologist Bruno Turner. Its primary era of emphasis is the Renaissance era, the richest outpouring of polyphonic composition in history.
In addition to its Renaissance repertory, the PCA also sings considerable amounts of Medieval music.
