Tubarum Voces - Byrd
-
Looking for anywhere I can find the three-part score for the 'Turba' in William Byrd's St. John Passion, preferably Latin. Any copies on-line are either missing or cannot be easily downloaded. Help appreciated.

I think that Byrd's setting was in English, and not Latin. On this website, each page of score is downloadable as its own JPG file. -
Actually, the Byrd original is in Latin, found in: Gradualia ac cantiones sacrae, 3-5vv Liber primus (London, 1605), vol.3 no.10.
Partbooks of the Gradualia I are available from IMSLP.

Here are the scanned parts.

I just PM'd you, Stimson.

Does anyone have the full score in Latin?

The Byrd Edition version is on IMSLP, along with the period chant for the rest of the Passion. It must be noted that this is not PD in the US.
