Anne and Henry travelled to Calais which was an island near France ruled by the English. I don't think they were able go to France as Queen Eleanor, Francis's wife (and niece of Catherine of aragon) refused to receive Anne.

didn;t Anne and Henry actually go to France? and not King Francis coming to England?

King François 1er was really liked by women actually and even by the french people, the actor really do great job :)

"and was still under Rome (has it remained mainly Catholic to this day?...I'm not sure)"

French people are catholic (the majority) however France has not official religion.

And a lot of catholics are in fact atheists.

"it is much harder to have everything than to have nothing" ~ King Francis. Classic line

@monikaedv I love finding kindred spirits. Especially when they can find obscure music. :) There is a Tudors soundtrack, Season 2, but I don't think this song is included. I need to listen track-by-track, more carefully. I am grateful for your help - surely there are others who are as well.

I also had to know! I knew I had heard it before, and I've been searching through my music for 3 days now before I finally found it. It's a sephardic song called "Si Verias". I don't know who plays the version on Tudors, but I've got a great version of it by Ensemble Accentus. Will keep searching for this particular version though. I'm happy! :) :) :)

Someone asked earlier - I will ask again - what is the title of this piece? The music is quite different from the rest. It haunts me. I MUST know!!!!
