Zefiro sings sacred and secular music by the pre-eminent composers of the Elizabethan era, featuring the fabulous Magnificat of Robert White, as well as works by Byrd, Tallis, Weelkes, Morely and others. The tremendous religious upheavals of the Elizabethan Age influenced some of the finest music writen for the Anglican church, from Mass ordinaries to psalmody, Magnificat, and other liturgical texts. Several of these same composers wrote for the musical life of the court as well, often in praise of Queen Bess herself.
