IN HONOUR OF THE VIRGIN

The Virgin Mary has long inspired great music from great musicians.  Marking The Cardinall’s Musick’s return to the Christmas Festival at St John’s, Smith Square, this programme features music from four of the greatest Renaissance composers – Lassus, Victoria, Byrd and Palestrina: the sumptuous Missa Osculetur me by Lassus, motets by Victoria, a sequence of music for the Mass of the Nativity of the Virgin by William Byrd and Palestrina’s ebullient eight-voice Magnificat primi toni.
