Rogers Covey-Crump

Rogers Covey-Crump is a British tenor noted for his performances in early music. His vocal range lies higher than normal for a tenor.

Covey-Crump was born in 1944.[1] A former chorister in the Choir of New College, Oxford,[2] he became a lay clerk in St Albans Cathedral Choir. He is perhaps best known as a member of vocal ensembles such as Gothic Voices and the Hilliard Ensemble (with which he had a long association although he was not a founder member).[3] However, he has also worked extensively as a soloist, for example in performances of:

Bach
Purcell, such as the recordings by the King's Consort.[4]
