The Italian 'madrigal' style of this music, unusual for English composers, arose from the special circumstances of Roman Catholic composers who chose to work on the continent. Dering himself was organist to a community of Benedictine nuns in Brussels, whose Abbess was an English noblewoman. These 21 motets for SSATTB were published in Antwerp.
