One of the great laments clearly written with real feeling for his great teacher and friends.

Absolutely beautiful version of this, I had previously only heard one version of this for one voice.

Ye sacred Muses, race of Jove,
whom Music's lore delighteth,
Come down from crystal heav'ns above
to earth where sorrow dwelleth,
In mourning weeds, with tears in eyes:
Tallis is dead, and Music dies.

Splendid, thanks for uploading this !

wonderful piece of music. Beautiful singing. It works well for voices, but perhaps the message comes across more clearly as a single voice line over viols. Great to have another interpretation, though
