William Byrd — Selected works
Herbert Howells — Selected works
Lennox Berkeley — Selected works
John Roberts — Selected works

A contemporary ode to William Byrd reads: "None suche I feare shall rise that may be calde his sonne." Besides his monumental choral output, William Byrd was also widely renowned in his time for his role in the development of a uniquely English style of keyboard music, one that was abandoned in the decades after his death.

Harpsichordist Eugene Petrushansky explores the music of Byrd, his immediate antecedents, his late 17th-century successors, and the 20th-century resurgence of interest in the old repertoire.

This program will be presented in person Wednesday, August 7 at St. Michael & All Angels Episcopal Church in Portland, OR. It will also be recorded and made available for streaming via YouTube on Saturday, August 24.
