Four Madrigals from The Triumphs of Oriana
Misc. arr. Ann Marshall
5 SSATB. Hence stars, too dim of light (East) - All Creatures Now (Bennet) - Lightly she whipped o'er the Dales (Mundy) - With angel's face and brightness (Norcombe) . The Triumphs of Oriana was a collection of twenty-five madrigals, published by Thomas Morley in 1601, and composed by some of the finest English madrigalists of the age. Ann has arranged four from the set, by East, Norcombe, Mundy and Bennet. These pieces work well at various speeds, as demonstrated by the available recordings, but a typical total playing time is about nine minutes.
