Thomas Tomkins (1572-1656), a major figure of the Golden Age of British music, was arguably the greatest of all Welsh-born composers. This collection places Tomkins and his achievements in his time and enables readers to reassess him in relation to his elders and contemporaries. Such a comprehensive account of the man and his music should appeal to early music scholars, performers and music lovers alike.
