Our Next Concert: Sunday, April 11

Polyphonic Favorites
Featuring our best-loved composers: Josquin and Ciconia
3PM, Sunday, April 11 2010
At the Loring-Greenough House, Jamaica Plain


Although separated by a hundred years, Johannes Ciconia (c. 1370-1412) and Josquin des Prez (c. 1455-1521) had much in common. Both had their beginnings in the Franco-Flemish school, and both worked in Italy for much of their careers. In this program, we present works by our two favorite composers: one a genius of several late Medieval musical styles, the other a true superstar of the Renaissance.
