About

The music of the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book ranges from erudite fantasias - strict contrapuntal pieces of a refined style and beauty - to short arrangements of popular songs and dances. Both these types can be heard on this album, along with the conventional pairing of slow and fast dances, the pavan and galliard.

Various character pieces are also dotted about in the collection, including the exquisite 'self-portraits' of Farnaby. The first album features a variety of instruments: harpsichord, organ and clavichord.
