Ye Sacred Muses is a song written by William Byrd after the death of fellow composer Thomas Tallis. It's one of my favourite pieces, usually sung by a male alto (as it would have been originally).
I rearranged it a while ago as an experiment, so here it is for your listening pleasure!
By the way "ye" is pronounced "the" - the "y" is actually a "th" written in a way that makes it look like a "y". So "ye olde tea shoppe", like you see in certain English towns, should actually be pronounced "the old tea shop".
I've never heard a recording of Ye Sacred Muses that gets it right...
