Sixteenth Century music from France and Flanders

The LMS and its Southwell Consort are delighted to announce a new series of polyphonic Masses taking place at Corpus Christi, Maiden Lane. These Monday evening Masses will feature music by Franco-Flemish composers from the sixteenth century. From January to April the Southwell Consort, under the direction of Dominic Bevan and invited conductors, will perform a series of eight polyphonic Masses showcasing works by composers such as Lassus, Gombert, Rogier, Clemens non Papa and others. Highlights will include Lassus' Missa Bel Amfitrit on Easter Monday and de la Rue's Missa Ave Maria on the feast of the Annunciation. The Traditional Latin Mass provides the original liturgical context for which this music was composed.
