Ave Verum Corpus (Byrd) – Flute Choir
Ave verum corpus (Hail, true body) is based on a 14th century poem. This musical setting by William Byrd (1543 – 1623) is considered one of his finest works. A student of Thomas Tallis, William Byrd was the leading English composer of his time, a great master of the Renaissance along with Giovanni Palestrina and Orlando de Lassus, and left a huge legacy of printed music.
The false relation, the G sharp in the 1st and 2nd flutes and the G natural in the alto and bass flutes in measure 2 was Byrd's way of emphasizing the word verum.
