Programme Note

‘In the Midst of Death there is Life’:
Celebrating 550 years of the Afterlife of Guillaume Du Fay

The 550th anniversary of the death of Franco-Flemish composer Guillaume Du Fay (the dominant figure in European music of the second half of the 15th century) provides a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the composer’s virtuosic contribution to music. Jamie Savan’s addition of the slide trumpet to the line-up brings a local connection too, as some of the earliest evidence of the instrument relates to trumpeters in the service of the Earl of Warwick.

‘Behind the Music’ FREE pre-concert talk: 7.45pm
