Additional information: Along with the Cantiones Sacrae of the late sixteenth century, William Byrd’s two sets of Gradualia are a towering achievement of renaissance polyphony and epitomise the English style.  Dedicated to Byrd’s patron Sir John Petre and the Catholic recusant community of which Byrd was a prominent member, the motets of the Gradualia are concise settings of the Proprium Missae for the major feasts of the church calendar.
This late work of 1607 was written for the feast of Corpus Christi, and the text follows the story of the last supper, focusing on the disciples’ acceptance of Christ as the Son of God: Alleluia, the disciples knew the Lord Jesus in the breaking of bread.  The music is concise and textual intelligibility is paramount, while the rather sprightly dance-like style reflects the optimistic and joyful nature of the text.
