(C1505-85). With Donald Macleod.
Thomas Tallis was witness to one of the most turbulent periods ever seen in the history of the church, in which the country's faith seesawed between Catholic and Protestant, triggered by the larger-than-life figure of Henry VIII. There was an inevitable effect on all aspects of the church service, including music. Today Donald Macleod looks at some of the works Tallis wrote during the last years of Henry's reign, at a time when there was a move towards a new kind of plain speaking in music.
