The feast of the swan — Cappella Pratensis & Sollazzo Ensemble
Netherlands
Once a year, the "Swan Brothers" hosted the Feast of the Swan—a grand banquet featuring rare delicacies like swan and a rich blend of sacred and secular music. This programme recreates the atmosphere of that historic celebration, combining movements from masses and motets with lively love songs. One fragmentary song has been reimagined with a witty new text by poet Erik Alink, exploring an 'unusual' affection for a swan.
With six singers from Cappella Pratensis, four instrumentalists from Sollazzo Ensemble, and a master of ceremonies, the evening offers a window into the cultural splendour and musical brilliance of the era.
