Cambridge Early Music Concerts 2011

PASSION AND RESURRECTION

Stile Antico

7.30pm, Saturday 13 August, 2011
St John's College Chapel
Stile Antico is internationally admired as "an ensemble of breathtaking freshness, vitality and balance...". They present a programme of dramatic contrasts, exploring the glorious music composed for Passiontide and Easter. William Cornysh's anguished Woefully arrayed, which devotees will remember as the outstanding opening of last year's concert, stands opposite William Byrd's exuberant In resurrectione tua - the extremes of an emotional journey retracing the events of Holy Week. The music is richly varied, drawing on two centuries of English and continental repertoire, from John Taverner to Orlando Gibbons, and Jean Lhéritier to Tomás Luis de Victoria. "Absolutely ravishing performances" (Classics Today)
