Polychoral Transformations
Festival Workshop Led by Gawain Glenton
Part of the Brighton Early Music Festival 2019
Add to my Calendar 29-09-2019 10:30 29-09-2019 12:30 36 Polychoral Transformations Renaissance choral and instrumental workshop for experienced instrumentalists, plus choral and ensemble singers led by Gawain Glenton. When looking at renaissance music, what you see is not the whole story. The original printed versions of polyphonic music usually showed only the basic vocal lines, leading to an assumption that it was always performed a cappella. But this is far from the truth! Come and find out some of the many ways in which it was magically transformed. Suitable instruments: viol and violin family, cornetts and sackbuts, dulcians (curtals) with possibly some bass rackets and pommers (if you play something else or sing as well). Booking from 7 August. Registration - £18. Half price available (restrictions apply) Ralli Hall, Hove DD/MM/YYYYDetails
