The Dow Partbooks is a collection of five books compiled by Robert Dow at Oxford and is considered one of the most beautiful music manuscripts from the Tudor period. The repertoire is varied and includes Latin-texted motets, English-texted anthems and consort songs, and a selection of In nomines, instrumental works, and textless chansons.

The partbooks hold the distinction of being the only known source for some of the pieces featured in the collection. Among composers represented, William Byrd, Robert White, Robert Parsons, Alfonso Ferrabosco, John Shepherd, Thomas Tallis, William Mundy, Christopher Tye, Orlandus Lassus, John Taverner, Richard Farrant, and Peter Phillips.
