Christopher Kite's masterful playing brings to life the delicate nuances and complex counterpoint of these works, offering a glimpse into the musical sophistication of the era. From the stately grace of "Pavan (1580)" to the lively energy of "Frogges Galliard," each track is a testament to the artistry of both the composers and the performer.
Kite's interpretation is marked by a deep understanding of the historical context and stylistic conventions of the music, resulting in performances that are both authentic and engaging. The album is a treasure trove for enthusiasts of early music, providing a comprehensive overview of the virginal repertoire and its evolution over the century.
