The Three Madrigals by Will Harmer announce a fresh new sound in British choral music. They are written by an experienced young singer also gifted with a rare talent to enliven words with buoyant rhythm and melody. He has caught the spirit and poetry of the Tudor madrigal school in these pieces: the vitality of Morley in the pulsing syncopations of ‘Spring in all her glory’, the passion of Wilbye in the rapt expression of ‘Sweet eyes’, and the energy of Weelkes in the dancing beat of ‘Sing we at pleasure’. Perfect for mixed historical programmes and a great match with other contemporary styles, they will bring joy alike to lovers of Renaissance and modern music.
