The Golden Renaissance: A journey through Stile Antico’s favorite music
In this brilliant and vividly contrasted program, Stile Antico selects pieces from the ensemble’s award-winning discography to create a thrilling journey through some of the greatest music of the Renaissance. Renowned for their fresh, vibrant, and moving performances of Renaissance polyphony, join these accomplished singers as they celebrate their 20th anniversary and share this truly unique collection of some of their favorite pieces. Exuberant works by composers such as Byrd, Gibbons, Tomkins, and Praetorius rub shoulders with tranquil motets by Taverner, Clemens non Papa, and Tallis, as well as the alluring sounds of Huw Watkins’ virtuosic The Phoenix and the Turtle, written especially for the ensemble. Allegri’s timeless Miserere completes this mouthwatering program.
