About

William Byrd was undoubtedly the greatest English composer of his time, fully equal to his continental contemporaries Palestrina, Lassus and Victoria ... what is also remarkable is that Byrd, a Roman Catholic in a Protestant country, should see most of his church music published during his lifetime.

DDD recording, 2005
