Byrd 8 (Fellowes edn) TCM 9

Baldwin’s attribution of this hymn to ‘mr w birde’ is doubtful on stylistic grounds: see Joseph Kerman, ‘Byrd’s Motets: Chronology and Canon’, Journal of the American Musicological Society, 14 (1961), 359–82 (366, 379); John Morehen, ‘Byrd’s Manuscript Motets: A New Perspective’ in Byrd Studies, ed. Alan Brown and Richard Turbet (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992), 51–62 (61–2).
