The Patterns of Time

Saturday 14 September 2019, 7:30pm


Pre-concert talk 7pm

Wellington Cathedral of St Paul
Cnr Molesworth and Hill St
Wellington

Directed by Michael Stewart

Counterpoint - the way in which different voices weave together - is one of the fundamental elements of music. Throughout history, and particularly with the Franco-Flemish School of the 14th and 15th centuries, composers have been trying to outdo each other with complex canons and patterns to show off their learning. Join The Tudor Consort as they explore some of the crowning achievements in this field, including Ockeghem’s famed Missa Prolationem, Tallis’ ‘crab-canon’ Miserere nostri, and works by Brahms and Jack Body.

This concert was part of the 2019 Performance Series.
