William Byrd: loyal servant of the Crown and devout Catholic.
William Byrd lived a double life. The programme juxtaposes the
two sides of his musical character: the brilliant gems composed
for the courts and chapels of the Protestant monarchs Elizabeth
I and James I, contrasted with the Latin motets he published
for secret services held by those of the old faith at a time
when Catholics endured dire persecution. It is music whose intensity
resonates with us still.

singers with secure sight-reading are welcome to work alongside
the viols. In addition there will be opportunities for beginners

Chansons et Fantasies
Sixteenth century French music in a York manuscript
Tudor musicians enjoyed performing a colourful range of national
styles ' not just native pieces and Italian madrigals ' and
this included French chansons. One manuscript in York Minster
Library (M 91 S) is a typical anthology from the second half
of the sixteenth century, containing a wealth of chansons by
Clemens non Papa, Crequillon, Sandrin and Sermisy, alongside
a few Italian madrigals and motets, as well as songs by Tallis
and Byrd.
The Rose Consort takes this York anthology as the basis for
its programme, exploring the gamut of emotions from the plaintive
lament of an exiled monarch, through ardent love songs to the
songs of carefree countryfolk. It will also include instrumental
fantasies from the collection published by Eustache du Caurroy
in Paris in 1610: these also circulated in England, as some
were copied by Francis Tregian into his great scorebook.
