An educational programme with early music. Will is dead; mournful music by and for William Lawes.

William Lawes was born in 1602 and died in 1645. In his short life, he wrote a large amount of impressive music.
His great predecessors, including Morley, Tallis, Ferrabosco, Byrd, John Dowland and his teacher John Coprario made him into a composer with a unique, genius style.
Elegies were written when he died, by his brother Henry and others, that move our hearts deeply.
