This composer's organ interludes include two Felix namques. He wrote a remarkably long antiphon adhering to the Phrygian mode, unusually for the time period; that work was later made into a 5-part mass of the same name, Salve intemerata.

In one of his motets, the two sopranos sing the same line half a bar apart, while four of the other five voices sing the same melody, two inverted, at different tempos. That work, Miserere nostri, was the last of a set of 34 motets created with a younger colleague, the Cantiones sacrae, and that colleague wrote Ye Sacred Muses to commemorate this man's death. He set two Lamentations of Jeremiah to a 5-part male chorus, and composed a 40-person motet, Spem in alium. For 10 points, name this early British composer, one of whose themes was used for a fantasia by Ralph Vaughan Williams.
