Event Description
"Lamentations - Exploring Musical Tributes on the Death Of…", with Annette Bauer, recorder Composing a musical tribute upon the death of a famous person is a long-standing tradition in music history. Among these, the musical tributes for influential composers, often written by those composers’ students, are especially moving. We will explore several late 14th-early 16th century musical tributes following the deaths of Guillaume de Machaut († 1377), Gilles Binchois († 1460), Johannes Ockeghem († 1497), and Josquin Des Prez († 1521) in four compositions by F. Andrieu, Johannes Ockeghem, Josquin Des Prez, and Nicolas Gombert. Open to: recorder players, all levels, and other instruments/singers (please note: play-along files are made on recorders, i.e. sound an octave higher than written pitch). Pitch: A= 440 Hz.
