  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalShorts Week 4

    Mar 1st, 2019 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #ClassicsaDay, Charles Ives, Classical music, Ethel Smyth, Giovanni di Palestrina, Stefanie de Kenessey, Thomas Tallis, Twitter

    February is the shortest month of the year. That fact inspired #ClassicsaDay team (of which I’m a member) to make short classical pieces the theme for the month. The challenge is to select stand-alone works, not movements of larger pieces. Participants post links to short classical pieces in the social media channel of their choice, […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalChristmas Week 3

    Dec 21st, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #ClassicsaDay, Charles Ives, Christoph Graupner, Classical music, Giovanni Gabrieli, Michael Torke, Thomas Tallis, Twitter

    This is the second year the #ClassicsaDay team went with a Classical Christmas theme. And that’s fine.

This release features Tallis compositions written for the nascent Church of England. The music reflects the latest scholarship, which shines new light on Tallis and his catalog. The text for Se lord and […]

    The Tudors at Prayer

    Aug 25th, 2014 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: CD Review, early music, John Tavener, Lynn, Magnificat, Philip Cave, renaissance music, Robert White, Thomas Tallis, William Byrd, William Mundi

    Though the theme is somewhat narrowly defined, (English sacred music xx-xx), there’s a surprising amount of variety in this program. Henry VIII created the Anglican church, though it had very little change on the sacred music John Tavener and Thomas Tallis composed. His daughter, Mary I, reinstated the Catholic church, and the music of her […]
