Full Event Details
Having recorded a series of albums of 'Milestones of Western Music', Tonus Peregrinus is now engaged in exploring some of the same repertoire from its original notation, thanks largely to the pioneering work of the Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music at Oxford University. This exploration reveals new insights into the harmonic thinking and performance practices of the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance.
