Here are three poems that Thomas Wyatt dedicated to his alleged mistress, Anne Boleyn, set to music. These madrigals, written for four unaccompanied mixed voices, are based on polytonality: each voice sings in a different scale, yet the harmonic result remains consistently consonant, even though there is no shared key. The chord succession is always unexpected.
