They Might Be Giants: Josquin and the Renaissance
Saturday, October 29, 8PM, St. Louis King of France Catholic Church, 7601 Burnet Rd.
Sunday, October 30, 3PM, First Presbyterian Church, 8001 Mesa Drive
Josquin des Prez was the most renowned composer of his day but he was really just a giant among giants. In this concert we will immerse ourselves in the music of Josquin and three of his Lowlands contemporaries: Brumel, Compère, and Pierre de la Rue, who were mentioned in the famous ode upon the death of Okeghem, their musical father. Each of these magnificent composers contributed a unique voice to the sacred and secular repertoires of the day. A small chamber choir, viols, and lute will perform the music of these titans.
