  • The Cardinall's Musick: Various Composers

    Music

    18 Dec 2009 to 18 Dec 2009

    It is 20 years since The Cardinall's Musick performed their first concert in Oxford at Christmas in 1989, and in this festive programme they return to the most exciting and vibrant composers of the 16th century for their programme dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Lassus' stunning double-choir Missa Osculetur me is set against motets by Victoria. William Byrd is represented by a set of Mass Propers for the Nativity of the Virgin, and the evening is brought to a rousing close by Palestrina's vibrant, celebratory double-choir Magnificat. A roll-call of great names from the past to prepare for Christmas.

     
  • Chapelle du Roi: Various Composers

    Music

    19 Dec 2009 to 19 Dec 2009

    Christmas has inspired composers for more than five hundred years. The legacy of English and continental composers from the Renaissance is rich and varied. In recent years a 'Second English Renaissance' has seen contemporary composers taking inspiration from plainchant, secular carols and polyphonic masterworks of the sixteenth century. A new tradition of Renaissance-inspired music flourishes in the hands of composers such as Francis Pott, Gabriel Jackson and Robert Hugill. In this programme Chapelle du Roi explores the links between works by Tallis, Palestrina and Guerrero and contemporary composers from England, Scotland and America. The result is a balance of sumptuous textures and harmonies and contrasting approaches to the great Christmas texts.
