O splendor gloriae: Taverner or Tye?
View through CrossRef
Abstract
The five-part votive antiphon O splendor gloriae is attributed to Taverner in two important sources, but to both Taverner and Tye in the other two 16th-century sources. Joint works of this kind in classical music are extremely rare, and common authorship is difficult to assess. In this case, scoring and many other musical features are consistent, but the style of each half seems different. In his edition of 1978, Nigel Davison cautiously attributes the second part to Tye on stylistic grounds. It certainly seems more modern in its imitative treatment, which may be consistent with the fact that Tye was a little younger than Taverner. In this article we employ both a special mathematical modelling technique and standard musicological methods to support the idea that each half of the work was written by a different composer.
