William Lyons / Period 1580-1650

Description:

â??Why these are the city waits, who play every winter's night through the streets to rouse each lazy drone to family duty. These are the topping tooters of the town, and have gowns, silver chains, and salaries, for playing â??Lilliburleroâ?? to my Lord Mayor's horse through the city.â? This 1709 reference to a professional band of musicians conjures the thriving city of London in the 16th and 17th centuries. The bandâ??s sound is replicated on this release by the modern-day namesake The City Musick directed by foremost expert in the field William Lyons (who is also director of the Grammy-nominated Dufay Collective). The drones of dulcians and cornetts, sackbuts and shawms, evoke the eraâ??s civic events, theatrical productions and liturgical services, paying homage to the unsung talents of the Waits from the period when their reputation was at its zenith. - WILLIAM LYONS / PERIOD 1580-1650
