Millennium of Music
November 2005 Schedule
#05-45: 10/31/05
Schola Romana of Lucerne-- The last time we caught up with Fr. Roman Bannwart, it was in the beautiful Monastery of Einsedeln. Now, he has brought 10th century chant from that monastery to Lucerne to explore the resonance between that repertory and modern jazz.
#05-46: 11/07/05
Lassus: The Song of Songs--This greatest of the last generation of composers from the Lowlands made many settings from the Song of Solomon, but unlike his contemporary Palestrina never published them in one volume. The latest effort by The Cardinall's Musick collects these and a mass inspired by one of them.
#05-47: 11/14/05
A Rediscovered Polish Master: Petrus Wilhelmi de Grudencz—
Only in the 1970s (thanks to Jaromir Cerny's researches) could we identify the legendary "Petrus" as associated with some of the great compositions from late medieval Europe; this week, with David Eben and his Schola Gregoriana of Prague, we hear this lost master.
#05-48: 11/21/05
Liturgy from Armenia--One of the earliest series we did on Millennium was dedicated to the sacred music of the first Christian nation; this week, we'll sample performances from Armenian communities in France, Washington, D.C. and Providence, RI as this exquisite liturgy is recreated.
