Taverner and Tye are the predominant influences in these works. The 6-part Mass
Cantate
is taken from the Oxford partbooks. The source for
The Western Wind Mass
,
The Frences Mass
, the Mass
Be not afraid
, and the
Plainsong Mass for a Mean
, all in four parts, is the so-called ‘Gyffard’ partbooks (British Library Add. MSS 17802-5), which are now known to have been copied after Elizabeths accession for a Catholic patron, Dr Philip Gyffard, Fellow of Merton College, Oxford.
