4 Voice Programmes
The Hilliard Songbook programmes are very flexible, mixing old and new, sacred and secular. They can be tailored to particular acoustics or themes and are ideal opportunities for introducing new music (we sometimes have pieces looking for 1st performances). This is the current version but almost anything's possible...
Early and modern Christian music from the Roman, English, Greek, Russian and Armenian traditions.
Pieces from Gavin Bryars's First Book of Madrigals, Rudolf Kelterborn's Four Sonnets for Four Voices, and works by de Rore, Caron, Jannequin, Merulo and others.
Dufay's Missa - Se la Face ay Pale with motets by Josquin and pieces from the St. Martial manuscript.
From the mediaeval Paris of Pérotin, via Japan, Italy and Canada to the U.S.A.
Settings from the Song of Songs including works by Ceballos, Ivan Moody, Plummer, Isaac and Lechner.
Lassus's 4 part Requiem Mass with motets and antiphons by Palestrina.
Secular music by Dufay, Weelkes, de Rore, Veljo Tormis, Elizabeth Liddle and others. Cl7th French chant of the Requiem Mass with polyphony by Victoria and Palestrina. Renaissance secular music from England, France and the Low Countries, including works by Cornysh, Verdelot, Weelkes, de Rore and Janequin.
