AUTHOR OF LIGHT 

Campion Author of Light
Cornysh My love she mourn’th
Byrd Ad Dominum cum tribularer
Cornysh Ah, Robin, Gentle Robin   
Campion Most sweet and pleasing are thy ways
Anon I am a jolly foster
Campion Never weather-beaten sail
Cornysh Woefully array’d
Campion To music bent is my retired mind
Cornysh Hoyda, jolly rutterkin
Campion Shall I come sweet love to thee?
de Monte Super flumina Babylonis
Byrd Quomodo cantabimus
Cornysh Ave Maria, Mater Dei
Campion Never weather-beaten sail

 

For their much-anticipated annual visit to Temple Music, world-renowned choir The Sixteen will perform music from the 14^th to 16^th centuries interspersed with songs by Thomas Campion, one of the outstanding songwriters of the brilliant English lutenist school. The unique sound of The Sixteen, the breath-taking acoustic of the Temple Church and this exquisite programme make a flawless combination.
