Much favoured for cathedral use in pre-Reformation England until the disbandment of choirs following the civil war of 1642, Thomas Tomkins’ varied verse anthems are full of charm and good humour. His music for viol consort, though more introspective, is equally attractive.
“Fretwork remain the world’s leading viol consort” – The Independent
