The Byrd Edition 7: Cantiones Sacrae / 1589 Propers for Lady Mass from Christmas to Purification

Album by William Byrd & The Cardinall’s Musick & Andrew Carwood

The Byrd Edition 7: Cantiones Sacrae / 1589 Propers for the Lady Mass from Christmas to Purification is an edition of sacred vocal music by William Byrd, originating in 1589. The works exemplify late Renaissance polyphony, featuring dense contrapuntal textures, modal harmonies and careful text-setting for liturgical use, and they illustrate Byrd's role in English Catholic church music and the wider development of Renaissance sacred repertoire.
