WILLIAM BYRD
MY LADYE NEVELLS BOOKE
THE ACADEMY OF ANCIENT MUSIC
CHRISTOPHER HOGWOOD
"A superb recording of the most famous keyboard music of the Sixteenth Century, and this time there are no "qualifiers" as to the real identity of the composer and the integrity of the compositions. William Byrd actually edited the final collection himself.
These are all his mature works, with 42 separate pieces, performed on a variety of instruments; virginal, Flemish and Italian Harpsichords and a chamber organ. The inside booklet, included in this 4 record album, is written by Christopher Hogwood, and is very detailed and thorough. This unique collection even received a Rosette from the Penguin Record Guide, and should be considered indispensable to (pre-Bach) keyboard music enthusiasts.
The sonics are extremely smooth and natural, with body and excellent harmonic structure. It captures the recording space well and there is excellent decay. There is no edge or strain. It is also pure, transparent and immediate." - Arthur Salvatore
