Katherine Butler and I co-edited a special 'cluster' of Early Music on the recreational music of Byrd and Weelkes for their 2023 quatercentenary. The whole shebang is finally out in preview. Special thanks to Samatha Arten, Joseph Ortiz, & Linda Phyllis Austern for their contributions. Open access in the UK only (minus the editorial, which I think can be viewed anywhere).
