The Tudor Choir and members of the world-renowned Tallis Scholars, directed by Peter Phillips and Doug Fullington, open the 2011 Tallis Scholars Summer School USA with program of English Renaissance polyphony by Thomas Tallis (c. 1505-1585) on Sunday July 24 at 8:00 PM, at St. James Cathedral, 804 Ninth Ave., Seattle.

The theme for this year's Tallis Scholars Summer School is English Renaissance music.
