Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Thomas Tallis (c. 1505 23 November 1585) was an English composer. Tallis flourished as a church musician in 16th century tudor England. He occupies a primary place in anthologies of English church music, and is considered among the best of England''s early composers. He is honoured for his original voice in English musicianship. No contemporary portrait of Tallis survives: the earliest, painted by Gerard van der Gucht, dates from 150 years after Tallis died, and there is no certainty that it is a likeness. Toward the end of his life, Tallis resisted the musical development seen in his younger contemporaries such as William Byrd, who embraced compositional complexity and adopted texts built by combining disparate biblical extracts. Tallis'' experiments during this time period were considered rather unusual. Tallis was content to draw his texts from the Liturgy and wrote for the worship services in the Chapel Royal. Tallis composed during a difficult period during the conflict between Catholicism and Protestantism, and his music often displays characteristics of the turmoil.
