About This Song

About "Byrd: The First Sett of Italian Madrigalls Englished: No. 28, This Sweet and Merry Month of May" by The King's Singers

Byrd's English madrigal greets May with garlands and grace. The King's Singers make 'This Sweet and Merry Month' a portal to a sunlit meadow—yet the perfection feels precarious, as if the season's bloom could bruise at a touch. Joy and its fragility, braided in counterpoint.
