Works
An Elegy in Memory of Master Thomas HynsonAnd they cry
A stranger here
At length to Christ
Away with weak complainings
But he the God of love
Come, let's rejoice
Consider, all ye passers by
Distressed soul
Fear not
He that descended man to be
I am for peace
I bring you tiding
I will sing unto the Lord
Let false surmises perish
Lo, how from heaven
Love we in one consenting
My Lord is hence removed and laid
Now doth the city remain solitary
O come thou spirit divinest
O love beseeming well
O ye little flock
Pavan and Galliard
Remember not, Lord, our offences
Saint Mary now
Sweet are the thoughts
The heavens stood all amazed
Thus sings that heavenly quire
Woe is me

Mark KeaneAbout
Although not a ‘celebrated ‘ composer of the Renaissance era, the music in Amner’s Sacred Hymnes shows that he was capable of writing in a number of styles from three-voice conzonets through to elaborate consort anthems of multiple voices in the verse sections. Also on this fascinating album is his five-part Pavan and Galliard, Amner’s only surviving works for viol consort which represents an indication of a broader compositional output of instrumental music by the composer.
Amner has been seldom recorded, and this album represents an important addition to the understanding of both the composer and the provincial religious music scene in England in the first half of the 17th century.
The recording was meticulously and lovingly curated by Mark Keane, directing ensembles Fretwork and the Dublin Consort Singers.
