‘Western Wynde’ Mass
Album by John Taverner & The Sixteen & Harry Christophers
Missa Western Wynde is a mass by English composer John Taverner, composed c.1520. The work exemplifies early Tudor polyphony, employing a cantus-firmus technique with imitative counterpoint, rich vocal textures and modal harmonic language, and is representative of Taverner's contribution to English Renaissance sacred music.
