BEMF in Review


 

directed by Peter Phillips

Poetry in Music for the Virgin Mary

The crystalline voices of The Tallis Scholars have introduced thousands of music lovers to the great masterworks and new discoveries of the Renaissance era for over 30 years. Their annual appearance on the BEMF stage brings together these two traditions with Jean Lhéritier’s striking Nigra sum alongside Palestrina’s parody mass of the same piece, plus works by Crecquillon, Mouton, Gallus, and Josquin extolling the virtues of the Virgin Mary.

“Here was drama, complex musical patterns and sheer beauty of sound.”The Liverpool Daily Post
