Bird & Gibbons: Collection of Works ① Byrd: Pavane and Galliard No. 1 ② Gibbons: Fantasia ③ Gibbons: Almand (Italian Ground) ④ Byrd: Hugh Ashton's Ground ⑤ Byrd: Pavane and Galliard No. 6 ⑥ Gibbons: Lord Salisbury's Pavane and Galliard ⑦ Byrd: Voluntary ⑧ Byrd: Sellinger's Round ⑨ Sweelinck: Fantasia Glenn Gould (Piano) Recorded: 1967-1971 (Stereo) ⑨ only 1964 (Monaural) Bird and Gibbons were British composers who were active from the late 16th to the early 17th centuries. Gould performs small pieces composed for the harpsichord on the piano. In modern times, it is not often considered to perform 16th and 17th-century keyboard works on a modern piano, but Gould effortlessly transcends such "common sense" and deeply invites the listener into the world of virginal music. I think many people postpone listening to this because the composers' names are unfamiliar, even before Bach, but this is a performance you absolutely must hear. If you seek healing in Gould's performance, this album and Brahms' Intermezzi are recommended. The album's structure, which alternates between Byrd and Gibbons' pieces, is also delightful. I am once again impressed by Gould's talent for discovering such masterpieces and compiling them into a single album. Sweelinck was also a composer from around the same time as Byrd and Gibbons, and this piece was added, recorded for Canadian television broadcast. The era in which Byrd and Gibbons were active was truly the English Renaissance. It was the height of the Tudor dynasty, the time of Henry VIII to Elizabeth I, when England defeated the Spanish Armada, which controlled the seas around the world, and gained maritime dominance that led to world domination. Shakespeare also led the Globe Theatre during this time and left behind many immortal plays. It is exciting to be able to listen to the music of musicians from that era (although performed on the virginal) through Gould's performance. The tone is very beautiful.
