- The new album ‘On Byrd’s Wings’ by the Boreas Quartett Bremen, the Hathor Consort and the sopranos Dorothee Mields and Magdalene Harer is available here: play.audite.de....
The heyday of English consort music coincided with the exciting shift in musical style between 1580 and 1630 from the renaissance to the early baroque period. William Byrd and his successors made their mark with sacred and secular songs, fantasies and dances. Honouring the 400th anniversary of William Byrd’s death, this album displays the diversity and richness in colour of consort music.
On the one hand, English composers employed a strikingly sophisticated writing style, whilst on the other hand taking up popular music of their time. The results were atmospheric musical pictures reflecting the deep melancholy, pious confidence and full-bodied joie de vivre of Shakespeare’s era.
