Gabrieli’s 2 and 3 choir canzonas are masterpieces of polychoral music full of light and shade, grandeur, dancing rhythms and singing melodies. During the course of the day, we will study, in depth, some of the finest of these.
As well as conducting, Andrew will give some historical and musical background to this fascinating repertoire.
Larger instruments such as Great and Contras are very welcome to help us experience the Venetian antiphonal master Gabrieli in multi-choir music taken from instrumental and vocal pieces that will indulge us in the world of St Mark's and Italian life.
