William byrd: keyboard music
OehmsClassics, 2022
«Among discs devoted to Byrd’s keyboard music, this current recording is among the very finest. (…) it provides ideal listening: stimulating to the intellect, and delightful for recreation.»
«In every one of Chylek’s interpretations, I hear an uncommonly sober balance of emotional expressiveness with technical clarity, and through this disk I am reminded once more why I have had this lifelong relationship with Byrd. In this music there is a voice which fully knows the complex tapestry of life’s joys, sorrows and uncertainties; yet it urges us to never stop moving forward.»
From Byrd to Byrd
OehmsClassics, 2019
«I cannot recommend this disc too highly. Anyone familiar with some or all of these works will find them interpreted in so many new lights. It is also an ideal disc for someone setting out to discover early English keyboard music – a wonderful repertory complimented by this wonderful disc.»
