    Alamire - early choral music live from Cadogan Hall 24.4.13

    For Every Syllable a Note:

    Alamire chart the music of the Tudor Dynasty from the pre-Reformation flowerings of the Eton Choirbook through Archbishop Parker's Psalter and the 'Father of English Music,'Thomas Tallis,' to the great Elizabethan motets and votive offerings of William Byrd.

    7.30
    Part I

    Lambe: Nesciens mater
    Taverner: O Christe Jesu, pastor bone
    Sheppard: Filiae Jerusalem
    Taverner: Quemadmodum
    Sheppard: Verbum caro
    Taverner and Tye: O spendor gloriae



    approx 8.25pm
    Part II

    Tallis: It ye love me
    Tallis: Tunes for Archbishop Parker's Psalter
    Byrd: Peccantem me quotidie
    Tallis: Honor virtus et potestas
    Tallis: In ieiunio et fletu
    Tallis: Dum transisset sabbatum
    Byrd: Emendemus in melius
    Byrd: Tribue Domine.


    What a gorgeous concert... The first half was the perfect balm on the way home after a hectic first day back at work.

    Wonderful music and performance

    "...the isle is full of noises,
    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
