Four Pieces -sc. Contributors: Jenkins. Recorder Quartets (SATB). Score. Publisher's category: Recorder Quartets.

John Jenkins (1592 - 1678) was the supreme composer of music for the viols. He grew up when the music of Byrd and his contemporaries were in full flower and he continued until the emergence of Purcell in the 1670s. He came to maturity as a composer in the 1620s, following in the footsteps of the generation that had developed the consort fantasia for viols, in particular Alfonso Ferrabosco II, Thomas Lupo, John Coprario and Orlando Gibbons.
Through his exceptional lyrical gifts, a capacity for large - scale planning and a special and remarkably mature handing of key - relationships, he brought new beauties to the genre.
