Francis Pilkington (born c.1565 - died 1638 in Chester) was an English composer, lutenist and singer. Pilkington received a B.Mus. degree from Oxford in 1595. In 1602 he became a singing man at Chester Cathedral and spent the rest of his life serving the cathedral. He became a minor canon in 1612, took holy orders in 1614 and was named precentor of the cathedral in 1623. Although he was a churchman, Pilkington composed largely secular music -- ayres, madrigals, and lute songs. HD quality: http://www.vimeo.com/2037662
