And think ye nymphsCompel the hawk
The Eagle's force
Ye sacred muses
Ah, dear heart
Dainty fine Bird
Fair is the Rose
The Silver Swan
Arise, awake, awake
Hard by a Crystal Fountain
No, no, Nigella
Now is the gentle season
Cloris, when as I woo
Like as the doleful dove
O ye tender babes of England
Music divine, proceeding from above
O let me live for true love
See, see the shepherds' Queen
The Fauns and Satyrs tripping
When shall my sorrowful sighing slake
Death hath deprived me
Like two proud armies
Mars in a fury
Thule, the period of cosmography

The Queen’s SixAbout
Entitled ‘Her Heavenly Harmony: Profane Music from the Royal Court’, The Queen’s Six present a recital of well- and lesser-known works by Morley, Weelkes, Tomkins, Byrd, Tallis and Gibbons, with various themes of ‘Royalty’, ‘Planets’, ‘Ballets’, ‘Birds and Flowers’, ‘Dedications’ and ‘Love and Death’.
‘The close musical rapport that develops when six men sing together every day, as the Queen’s Six do, is very much in evidence on this, their impressive debut album, recorded at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, where they are lay clerks in the choir. They bring seamless blend and balance to music from the reign of Elizabeth I, from whom they take their name.’ - The Observer
