About

William Byrd’s output is particularly notable for the variety of its genres and structural principles. This is particularly evident in his unique keyboard music. The influence that Byrd also had on the development of continental keyboard music remains remarkable. Friederike Chylek follows up on her recent albums – From Byrd To Byrd (OC 1702) and Time stands still (OC 1864) – by performing Byrd's music on a copy of a 1624 Ioannes Ruckers harpsichord by Matthias Griewisch.

Awards and reviews

March 2022

Chylek has opted for a harpsichord throughout, a copy by Matthias Griewisch of a 1624 Ruckers. It sounds well, and Chylek’s apposite phrasing and articulation – Byrd’s particularity in the execution of his keyboard music foreshadowing that of François Couperin – further adds to our enjoyment.
