| Comments: | Transcribed from Chappell's "Early English Music", 1893 edition, re-printed in facsimily in 1961. With regard to the arrangement, the editor & Arranger writes- The above arrangement contains in substance most of the king's counterpoint; but an inner part has been added to fill up the harmony which is often rather bare. Consecutive fifths also, which were not considered faults at the date when the king learned music, have been removed from all the cadences. |
