First sentence: Three bars into the ninth and last variation of "Sellinger's Round" (William Byrd's final contribution to this disc), a solitary B-flat-the only note of its persuasion to grace this 182-bar opus-at once proclaims the end of this work and the beginning of that new key-oriented chord system to which within a few years most music would subscribe.
