Searching for a Christopher Tye Kyrie

    Hello all,

    I'm reading a book called Tudor Church Music. It mentions a Kyrie setting written by Christopher Tye that is based on the Missa Orbis Factor. The author states that there is an alternation between the chant melody and a polyphonic response. I've found MP3 files of the piece, but I can't find the score. I look on ChoralWiki, and I searched on Google.

    Does anyone have any idea where I can find this score?

    Thank you,
    In Christ,
    Christopher Ruckdeschel

    There is a published series called "Early English Church Music." The piece you are looking for is in volume 33, "Ritual Music and Motets."
