All eighteen pieces in this collection are reliably dated to the reign of James I, and whether by named composers or anonymous ones, appear in sources other than the notable virginal books preserved in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. The contents demonstrate the variety of forms in the keyboard repertoire of this period, from plainsong-based compositions to dances by Orlando Gibbons. The 'Pretty ways for young beginners to look on', possibly by Thomas Tomkins, are a fascinating example of music contemporary to the time, written with the didactic purpose of instructing musicians in the techniques of counterpoint.

Composed by William Wallace. Sacred. GIA Publications #003428. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-003428).

Known for his work in interfaith activities, Wallace's songs featured in this collection bridge the gap between traditional Christianity and a scientific view of humans and the universe. Many of the texts are set to original, easily sung tunes while others carry a familar melody. Great for Sunday liturgies, retreat groups, and personal meditation on spirituality and mysticism.   .
