  2. Spem in Alium (40 part motet) - Thomas Tallis

Music for the Tudors (Part One) with Tallis: Spem in Alium, Byrd: Mass for 4 voices and motets for All Saints by Byrd

The first part of our two part survey of Tudor music focuses on music which reflects but also soars
above the religious and historical turbulence of its time. Tallis's intricate masterpiece Spem in Alium is
a musical landmark that will be a perfect opener to our exploration of Tudor music. Byrd was a pupil of Tallis and the secrecy surrounding Byrd’s setting of the Mass for 4 voices, probably for a covert Catholic audience, explains why it is one of the most intensely personal and expressive settings of the period. As our concert is on All Saints Day we intersperse this music with Motets by Byrd marking that feast.
