The golden age of English music lies roughly between the end of the sixteenth and the first quarter of the seventeenth centuries. Although generally and somewhat loosely called the 'Elizabethan Age', this period of greatness, which coincided with the full flowering of the English drama (Marlowe, Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, etc.), actually covers only the last part of the reign of the great Elizabeth and extends throughout the reign of James I, the first of the Stuarts. During the period of forty years between about 1588 (the year of the victory over the Spanish Armada) and 1625 (the death of James I), England produced a larger number of great composers than at any other time in her history: William Byrd, Thomas Morley, Thomas Weelkes, John Wilbye, John Dowland, John Bull, Orlando Gibbons - preceded by a generation by the great Thomas Tallis - and at least twenty other highly gifted musicians who would have been the glory of a less fortunate age.
