William Byrd's work stands out above all for the variety of genres and structural principles. This is particularly evident in his unique keyboard music. The influence that Byrd also had on the continental development of piano music remains remarkable. With William Byrd, Friederike Chylek follows up on her last albums From Byrd To Byrd (OC1704) and Time stands still (OC1864). Friederike Chylek plays on a copy of the harpsichord by Matthias Griewisch after Ioannes Ruckers, 1624.
