Forwards, backwards, upside down, twice as fast, three times as slow, start together and then start apart. Welcome to the baffling, playful and occasionally maddening world of the Renaissance riddle. Together we’ll be exploring the fun and meaning behind some of the Renaissance’s most perplexing musical games. We’ll also take a special diversion into the so called si placet repertoire of motets that grew arms and legs after their composer’s deaths!

Time to look at the final years of one of the Renaissance’s great Titans: Palestrina. As well as works from his mature years, we’ll look at his role in establishing Rome’s first professional guild of musicians, a ‘lifetime achievement’ award in the form of a mass with seven composers, and we’ll be assessing his legacy beyond the immediate confines of Renaissance Rome.
