composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Antony Holborne, Edward Johnson, John Bennet, Robert Parsons, Robert White, Thomas Tallis, Thomas Tomkins, Thomas Weelkes, William Byrd, William Cornysh

Perhaps it's an example of a characteristically Dutch sense of humor to have a group called the Gents performing music by the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, the court composers of sixteenth century England. But when the group gets down to the music, it's all business. The Gents are not an English but a Dutch ensemble, formed of veterans of one of ...

performed by Charles Daniels (tenor), Nigel North (lute)
composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Francis Pilkington, Philip Rosseter, Robert Jones, Thomas Campion, Thomas Ford, Thomas Morley, William Corkine

Veteran English tenor Charles Daniels is best known for his careful, penetrating readings of large Baroque choral roles. This disc of famous (Thomas Campion's Fire fire and a couple of Morley classics) and not-so-famous (William Corkine's Beauty sat bathing) represents an unusual repertoire for him and another distinctive release connected with ...

composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Anonymous, Anonymous, English, Giovanni Coprario, John Dowland, John Ward, Peter Philips, Richard Alison, Thomas Morley, Various Composers, William Byrd

Another supremely high-concept disc superlatively executed, this package called Bara Faustus' Dreame performed by Les Witches and produced by Alpha is essentially a recital of soulfully sorrowful songs and deeply despairing dances by Dowland, Morley, Byrd, Philips, and others. Mixing mournful instrumental pieces bearing names like Pavana Dolorosa ...

Grainger: Transcriptions for Wind Orchestra

Grainger: Transcriptions for Wind Orchestra (2008) more music like this

composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Antonio de Cabezón, César Franck, Eugene Goossens, Franz Liszt, Gabriel Fauré, Guillaume de Machaut, Johann Sebastian Bach, John Jenkins, Josquin Desprez, Katharine ("Kitty") Parker, Percy Grainger

Percy Grainger was one of the principal architects of the symphonic wind orchestra in modern times, and Chandos' Grainger: Transcriptions for Wind Orchestra is a survey of much of the arrangements Grainger made for wind groups from non-original sources. While the sources may have been non-original, Grainger's totally transformative approach to ...

Consort Music & Airs for the Flute

Consort Music & Airs for the Flute (2006) more music like this

performed by Capriccio Stravagante, Joshua Cheatham (violone), Joshua Cheatham (bass viol), Julian Martin (recorder), Skip Sempe (harpsichord), Skip Sempe (organ), Skip Sempe (virginal), Skip Sempe (conductor)
composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Antony Holborne, Henry Purcell, Jacob van Eyck, John Dowland, Samuel Scheidt, Thomas Morley, Tobias Hume, William Brade

The title of this album, Consort Music & Airs for the Flute, is somewhat misleading. Julien Martin plays recorder rather than flute, and for many of these selections, his part is so embedded in the consort of strings and keyboards that it hardly qualifies as a solo. But that's merely a quibble about the title; the music-making on this album is ...

composed by Alfonso Ferrabosco, Antony Holborne, John Danyel, John Jenkins, Richard Alison, Thomas Ford, William Lawes

Why Not Here is not the title of this disc, although from a casual glance it might look like it is so. The device "Why not here" is actually the name of the duo formed by gambists Hille Perl and Friederike Heumann; they are joined on many pieces by lutenists Lee Santana and Michael Freimuth, and the latter pair even have several pieces to ...

Harmonie Universelle II is the second of what seems to be an ongoing series of compilations issued by Alia Vox, the label founded by Catalan gambist Jordi Savall and singer Montserrat Figueras. It is labeled "Portrait Alia Vox 2001-2004," but one might even be permitted to speak of greatest hits: the label's sales are approaching the figure of one ...
