Description
Instrumental arrangement of a motet by William Byrd originally intended for the Feast of the Annunciation,
but also appropriate for both Christmas and Easter.
Original words:
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum;
benedicta tu in mulieribus,
Alleluia.

Virgo Deum et hominem genuit:
pacem Deus reddidit,
in se reconcilians ima summis.
Alleluia.
