The Melodious Birde

Virtuoso harpsichordist Colin Booth’s love of William Byrd’s music is as old as his obsession with the harpsichord. Here Booth performs a selection of Byrd’s best keyboard music, brilliantly conveying how the moods within these pieces ranging from solemn introspection to playful virtuosity. Above all, this magisterial CD shows the poetry and lyricism of Byrd’s work. Three historically appropriate instruments were used, with very different sounds.
