William Byrd

William Byrd Suite

Bring the majestic splendour of the Renaissance to life on the modern concert stage! Published by the renowned Boosey & Hawkes, the famous 'William Byrd Suite' is drawn from selected masterworks within the historic Fitzwilliam Virginal Book and stands as an absolute cornerstone of the wind band repertoire.

This multifaceted work takes musicians and audiences on a richly coloured journey through six varied movements: from the regal 'The Earle of Oxford's March' and the graceful 'Pavana' to the powerful, resonant finale 'The Bells', the suite captivates with rhythmic finesse and noble sonorities (also featuring 'Jhon come kiss me now', 'The Mayden's Song', and 'Wolsey's Wilde').

Available as a complete set of score and parts – an indispensable highlight for sophisticated concert programs and festival performances!
