Robert White III

Included are Libera me, Domine, de morte aeterna, the ninth respond at Matins in the Office of the Dead, and White’s only surviving essay in respond form. There are also four hymn settings with Sarum texts, and two Lamentation settings. They hold an important place in the ranks of a genre that briefly flourished during the Elizabethan period, despite a lack of indigenous precedent for the form.
