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.

The music is flexible to accompany the ritual action it accompanies, and the scoring allows for performance by cantor or choir. Above all, this is elegant liturgical music at the service of the liturgy. Ephrem’s musical style sits comfortably between classical and contemporary, allowing for immediate engagement by all.   CONTENTS: I Will Go Up to the Altar of God • A Blessing on the Young • Christ Has No Body Now but Yours • Be Near at Either Hand • God’s Love for Us • Our Hearts Are Restless, O God • Song of Farewell • Sing a New Song to the Lord • Call to Your Table • Our Eyes Are Fixed on the Lord •For You, My Soul Is Thirsting • When in Our Music God Is Glorified.

This volume is the first of two intended to extend the coverage of keyboard music in Musica Britannica comprehensively into the first quarter of the 17th century. (The other, MB102, includes material from the two virginal books in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.) The present edition contains music by anonymous and a dozen or so named composers, including the complete keyboard works of Nicholas Carleton, the surviving twenty 'Miserere' canons by Thomas Woodson, and the anonymous 'Pretty ways for young beginners to look on'. The 77 complete pieces are organised by genre, including preludes, plainsong settings, voluntaries, dances and character pieces. Drawing on 22 manuscripts which mostly also transmit music by Byrd and other noted virginalists, this residue of music from these sources shows great diversity and a pleasing level of technical skill and musical interest, sufficient to enhance our wider view of English Renaissance music.
