The Golden Renaissance: Josquin des Prez
Working without a conductor, the intensely collaborative singers of Stile Antico have won acclaim as one of the world’s most vibrant and expressive vocal ensembles. They return to BEMF for a virtual performance celebrating the North American release of their new CD for Decca Classics, titled The Golden Renaissance: Josquin des Prez. Marking the 500th anniversary of the composer’s death, this sumptuous program of highlights from the recording features Josquin’s superb Missa Pange lingua and several of his best-loved motets and chansons.
