Edited by Ian PayneJohn Ward's music for four viols shows less consistency of style than his work for five- or six-part consort. Thesmooth madrigalian lines of the six Oxford fantasias most clearly approach the accomplishment of his characteristic pieces for larger ensembles. The Paris fantasias which with the In nomines also included in the collection feature uniquely in a single source in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France are more variable in texture and idiom. The volume also includes six ayres for two bass viols and organ brief tuneful compositions in dance-like rhythm redolent of the almain.First published in 2005. Hardback

The English king Henry VIII (1491-1547) is mainly remembered for disposing of his wives on a regular basis and breaking with the Catholic Church when the Pope Clement VII refused to grant him a divorce so he could marry Anne Boleyn.As a young man he was a gifted athlete dancer and composer writing many songs poems and consort pieces (though not Greensleeves as is often believed). Pastime with Good Company is undoubtedly the best-known of these written in the first years of the 16th century while he was still a handsome prince newly married to Catherine of Aragon and the envy of Europe. The lyrics tell of the joys of hunting dancing and singing and would have been sungas part of the court entertainment.This arrangement features a quartet of soloists and two solo drummers.
