''Ye Sacred Muses'' is William Byrd's Musical elegy on the death of his colleague and sometime mentor, Thomas Tallis. It is scored for 5 vv (usually four viols and countertenor). The words are:- :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. The concluding lines are particularly effective and are repeated. ==External links== * *(Informal performance by 'Wolftooth' (viol consort and alto) ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ye Sacred Muses」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
