Shirley Rumsey
Shirley Rumsey (1933-1996) was an English musician who recorded two well-received solo CDs of Renaissance music for Naxos Records in the mid 1990s. She studied lute and voice at the Royal College of Music in London. There she became interested in solo vocal music accompanied by the lute, and she developed a career performing that repertoire. Rumsey also played the vihuela and the Renaissance guitar. In addition to solo recitals and recordings, she collaborated with lutenist Christopher Wilson, with whom she co-directed the ensemble Kithara.[1][2]
