Vocal Ensembles – ‘The Golden Renaissance’

Directed by Stile Antico

Looking back over twenty years performing as a group, Stile Antico shines a spotlight on some of their favourite pieces. Participants will be divided into small ensembles (working collaboratively, without a conductor) to explore masterpieces from throughout the Renaissance. Repertoire includes intimate Tudor motets; dense, lush Flemish masterpieces; and upbeat madrigals. This course is designed for singers with some experience of choral singing, keen to improve ensemble skills and get to know some wonderful repertoire!

Scores will be available for purchase on arrival. If requested, e-scores can be sent out in mid-June to allow participants to prepare in advance.

Standard: Intermediate and above. Applicants to the course are requested to email in advance with an indication of experience and sight-reading ability, to help allocate groups appropriately.

Note that this course has limited availability, places will be allocated according to voice type on a first come first served basis until capacity is reached. 

Soprano and Alto places are now fully booked, we do still have spaces for Tenors and Basses.

Professionally printed and bound booklets containing all the music required will be sold for £10 on the first day of the course, and all participants will be expected to purchase a booklet (preferably in cash but card payments will also be possible).
