This program traces music written by some of the English Renaissance masters over a period of 200 years, encompassing florid medieval-sounding pieces by Forest and Sheryngham, intricately woven polyphonic works by Tallis and Byrd, and the beautiful simplicity of Gibbons and Tomkins.

Courts in Renaissance Italy were meeting places for some of the greatest musicians from across Europe. The Court at Ferrara became a leading center: many of the Franco-Flemish school passed through its gates and perhaps the most notable of these is Josquin. This program contextualises some of the ‘jewels in the crown’ of Italian Renaissance repertoire by tracing themes of pedagogy and patronage in northern Italy over 150 years, featuring works by Brumel, Josquin, Mouton and L'Héritier.

Renaissance Italy was a melting pot of different traditions and cultures.
