Byrd Takes Flight

A groundbreaking convergence of old and new, where voices and instruments intertwine to create a timeless blend of soundworlds spanning centuries.

“Byrd Takes Flight” is part of our ongoing collaboration with innovative instrumental duo Music on the Edge, made up of Susie Hodder-Williams (flute, alto flute) and Chris Caldwell (soprano sax, tenor sax, bass clarinet).

Commemorating 400 years since the death of William Byrd in 1623, four newly-commissioned works explore the enduring strength of Byrd’s influence, which stretches right through to the 21st century. Each new commission is a response to a particular work by Byrd, placing Byrd’s musical voice in direct dialogue with the voices of some of today’s most exciting young composers.
