Thomas Tallis, Renaissance composer and musical genius, lived from 1505 to 1585 in England. I’ve admired his music since I was a youth, but only recently became curious how he lived so long in an age when heads literally rolled. Beryl Belsky has kindly posted my speculations on her Writer’s Drawer site. Take a peek if you don’t mind an offbeat (pun intended!) story.
