Stile Antico

The Golden Renaissance

The Golden Renaissance
In this attractive and highly contrasted programme, Stile Antico select one piece from each of their sixteen award-winning albums to create a thrilling journey through some of the greatest music of the Renaissance. Exuberant works by composers such as Byrd, Gibbons, Tomkins, and Praetorius rub shoulders with tranquil motets by Taverner, Clemens non Papa, and Tallis, and the alluring sounds of Huw Watkins’ virtuosic 'The Phoenix and the Turtle', written especially for the group. Allegri’s timeless 'Miserere' completes this mouthwatering programme.

William Byrd Exsurge Domine; Retire my Soul
Thomas Tallis In manus tuas
Thomas Tomkins O Praise the Lord
Orlando Gibbons Hosanna to the Son of David; O clap your hands
John Sheppard I give you a new commandment
Tomás Luis de Victoria Recessit pastor noster
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina Peccantem me quotidie; Surge propera amica mea; Cantantibus organis
Cheryl Frances-Hoad A Gift of Heaven
Cristóbal de Morales Jubilate Deo
Giaches de Wert Gaudete in Domino
Clemens non Papa Ego flos campi
Josquin des Prez Salve Regina à 5
Huw Watkins The Phoenix and the Turtle
