John Crook's enthusiasm for medieval French literature began during his undergraduate days at St Catherine's College Oxford, reading Modern Languages. He taught for a time, first at Eton, then in Winchester where he also sang as a tenor lay clerk in the cathedral. Here his interest in medieval architecture developed; he returned to Hertford College Oxford to work on a doctoral thesis on the setting of the cult of saints. Dr Crook is now a medieval historian, author, archaeological consultant, and a widely published architectural photographer. John features on the TONUS PEREGRINUS recording of Adam de la Halle: Le Jeu de Robin et Marion, and a forthcoming production of Tristan the Fool is in preparation.
