'Agnus Dei' from Music for Cardinal Wolsey; Missa Veni sancte spiritus, Richard Pygott(1485-1549)
Thomas Wolsey (1471 1530; sometimes spelled Woolsey), who was born in Ipswich, Suffolk, England, was an English statesman and a cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church.
When Henry VIII became king of England in 1509, Wolsey became the King's almoner. Wolsey's affairs prospered and by 1514 he had become the controlling figure in all matters of state and extremely powerful within the Church. The highest political position he attained was Lord Chancellor, the King's chief adviser, enjoying great freedom and often depicted as an alter rex (other king). Within the Church he became Archbishop of York, the second most important seat in England, and then was made a cardinal in 1515, giving him precedence over even the Archbishop of Canterbury. His main legacy is from his interest in architecture, in particular his old home of Hampton Court Palace, which stands today. Few men born without noble blood had as much power as Wolsey during Europe's Early Modern period.
Although it would be difficult to find a better example of abuses in the Church than the Cardinal himself, Wolsey appeared to make some steps towards reform. In 1524 and 1527 he used his powers as papal legate to dissolve thirty decayed monasteries where corruption had run rife, including abbeys in Ipswich and Oxford. However, he then used the income to glorify God by founding a grammar school in Ipswich (The King's School, Ipswich) and Cardinal College in Oxford. The college in Oxford was renamed King's College after Wolsey's fall. Today it is known as Christ Church. In 1528, he began to limit the benefit of clergy.
Wolsey's chapel choir clearly prospered under Pygott's direction -- so much so, in fact, that it soon aroused the envy of the king. Late in March 1518, the dean of Henry's own household chapel, Richard Pace, wrote to Wolsey in order to requisition one of the cardinal's choristers, couching his reason as a veiled threat: 'if it were not for the personal love that the King's highness doth bear unto your grace, surely he would have out of your chapel not children only, but also men; for his grace hath plainly shown... that your Grace's Chapel is better than his, and proved the same by this reason that if any manner of new song should be brought into both the said Chapels to be sung ex improviso then the said song should be better and more surely handled by your chapel than by his Grace's.' A few days later, when Pace wrote again to thank Wolsey for the chorister, he remarked that 'Cornyshe [the master of the king's chapel] doth greatly laud and praise the child... and doth in like manner extol Mr. Pygote for the teaching of him.' Pygott seems to have continued to direct Wolsey's chapel for the rest of its existence, accompanying his master on embassies to France on at least two occasions, and being rewarded from time to time with annuities from monasteries susceptible to the cardinal's influence.

Living History
Living History
This video has been made to accompany the English Heritage manual Living History. It has been made especially for teachers and outlines the various stages of setting up and carrying out living History projects at both historic sites and in schools. There are interviews with teachers, as well as sequences of drama and role-play recorded at Living History projects. The basis ofliving history is learning by doing. Whilst this approach has been common in many curriculum areas it has only recently been applied to history.
A living history project creates an opportunity for children to take part in a reconstruction of a day in the past. For many children this way of working can unlock history as places and objects come to life. The first step is to choose the location which should be a genuine setting with an atmosphere of the past. It is also essential that the children feel they are there for an authentic reason. Wearing simple period clothes gives the participants an identity and creates the setting for the reality. Adults assume roles to carry through the day which is best divided into sessions where the children join work groups.
At Orford Castle in Suffolk children worked for the day as twelfth century apprentices recruited to build fortifications around Henry II's castle. At Headingham Hall children became servants working in the house and grounds in the summer of 1890. At an Ipswich museum they prepared for the arrival of Cardinal Wolsey. At Tilbury Fort the garrison came to life for a day. We also see how much can be achieved by a school based project. A primary school class decided to become Saxons, made themselves costumes, and using the school as a base also worked in the surrounding fields. The experience of living history brings a totally new dimension to childrens' work because the past comes alive for them.

Ipswich
Ipswich /ˈɪpswɪtʃ/ is a large town in Suffolk, England, of which it is the county town. Ipswich is located on the estuary of the River Orwell. Nearby towns are Felixstowe, Woodbridge, Needham Market and Stowmarket in Suffolk and Harwich and Colchester in Essex. Ipswich is a non-metropolitan district.
The urban development of Ipswich overspills the borough boundaries significantly, with 75% of the town's population living within the borough at the time of the 2011 Census, when it was the fourth-largest urban area in the United Kingdom's East of England region, and the 38th largest urban area in England and Wales.

James Brockhurst: MORE MUD FLOOD AND ANTIQUETECH EVIDENCE!
James Brockhurst
Published on 28 Aug 2019
A further look at the local Ipswich, Suffolk glorious Tartarian architecture style, the Phoenician overlays and ridiculous window and door heights and a little more of the lost antiquetech. Makes perfect sense to pace a door five foot in height above the street level, and many steps to the main entrance, NOT !
Ironic that a number of the energy centres, re-purposed as religious centres have now become used for other functions. Even allowing for the official narrative on history, the gateway entrance to what was supposed to be a college founded by Thomas Wolsey is disgracefully neglected, leaning ever more forwards. On a one-way traffic system, this feature cannot even be fully appreciated.
Homeless problem in the UK and elsewhere in the Western World. Why ? There is no need when there are at least one or two lower floors to many buildings but clearly hiding the truth about the past is more important than human beings !

Double Mobo Nominee Bashy doesnt just release singles he creates talking points, moments of audio brilliance that captivate the listener and spark debate and comment that transcends the three minutes and thirty something seconds they occupy.
Life is destined to continue the trend as Bashy pours three emotive verses over a soulfully layered Toddla T production. The fourth video from his acclaimed Catch Me if You Can album, Life sees Bashy go back to street commentator mode touching subjects of greed, underage sex dreams won and more often lost in a way only he can.
The video sets itself apart too painting the perfect picture to match Bashys almost tangible delivery. Dropping snaps shots of each scene as Bashy skips effortlessly between each bar.
Not one to take a day off, Ashley Thomas aka Bashy is about to embark on a national theatre tour as the lead in the play Marcus The Sadist throughout October. Including dates at Nottinghams Playhouse, Manchesters Contact Theatre, Londons Bloombury, The Drum in Birmingham, West Yorkshire Playhouse in Leeds and the New Wolsey Theatre in Ipswich among others.
If that wasnt enough hell also be starting the filming of his first major feature, for the big British movie Shank, thatll be hitting cinemas nationally in 2010. Bashy also drops a cameo appearance in Noel Clarkes new movie 4,3,2,1 alongside Julia Roberts niece Emma.
Plus he was recently signed up by the War Child charity to join the star studied Young Soul Rebels collective alongside, N Dubz, VV Brown, Chipmunk, Ironik, Pixie Lott, Tinchy Stryder, Mclean & Mpho.
Catch Me if You Can is out now! Expect to see Life all over your screens very soon.
