An exact contemporary of Thomas Tallis, Christopher Tye (c.1505-1572) flourished chiefly in the reign of Edward VI and left an important liturgical corpus much admired in his day. for its second harmonia mundi recording, the Choir of Magdalen College, Oxford, led by Bill Ives, turns to his seldom heard cathedral music for both the Latin and English rites.
