I’ve just contributed a story about my friend #WilliamByrd to Byrd Central, a site celebrating his life and music during his 400th anniversary year. You can read the short post on my blog for some background (it has a link to the story), or go straight to the story from here.

6 January is the feast of the #Epiphany, so here is Vidimus Stellam, an early #17thCentury #motet for the day by William #Byrd, from #Gradualia, 1607.
Eleanor Cramer: #soprano
Christopher Goodwin: #lute
Alison Kinder: bass #viol
Tamsin Lewis: tenor viol
Vidimus stellam in Orientem, et venimus cum muneribus adorare Dominum.
We have seen a star in the East, and have come with gifts to adore the Lord.
