Digital Booklet
Acclaimed harpsichordist Colin Tilney presents this fascinating assortment of keyboard works highlighting the vocal character of William Byrd's writing, generally recognized as his chief glory, including his exquisite setting of John Dowland’s famed Lachrymae Pavan. While there are no transcriptions of chansons or song intabulations among his instrumental works, every moving line in one of these fantasies or pavans is in essence a wordless voice, having different registers and needing breath.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
