| Cadogan Hall, London, 5 Sloane Terrace, London SW1X 9DQ, United Kingdom Monday 22-Jul-13 01:00pm Proms Chamber Music 2 Continuing the exploration of Polish music in this year’s Proms, Paul Van Nevel and the Flemish singers and instrumentalists of the Huelgas Ensemble explore the little-known choral music of 15th- and 16th-century Poland. Motets by Polish composers Mikołaj Zieleński and Krzysztof Klabon are contrasted with works by Christoph Demantius and Johannes Wanning in a programme of intriguing polyphonic discoveries from the archives of the University Library of Warsaw that includes the earliest surviving setting of a Polish text: ‘Chwała tobie, Gospodzinie’ (Praise to Thee, O Lord).Tickets £10 - £12. Demantius, Christoph (1567-1643), Neue liebliche Intraden und frölichen Polnischen Täntzen (Intrada; Chorea polonica; Gaillarde) | ||

Programme to include: Works by Le Jeune |

| Pieterskerk, Utrecht, Pieterskerkhof 3, Utrecht 3512 JR, Netherlands Tuesday 27-Aug-13 10:30pm Lassus & Lejeune: motets, psalms, chansons A € 21 / € 19 / € 10 B € 18 / € 16 / € 10 Huelgas Ensemble / Paul Van Nevel Lassus & Lejeune: motets, psalms, chansons Paul Van Nevel unequivocally views Claude Lejeune as the French Lassus. Both composers were closely acquainted with each other’s works and they held each other in high regard. There was one marked difference: Lejeune found a secure niche working for the European Hugenots, where he ultimately developed into the musical figurehead of the French Reformation. This was also a determining factor regarding his choice of repertoire. The supreme all-rounder Lassus is surpassed by Lejeune in two genres: the chanson, which Lejeune approached with unprecedented freshness and, naturally, the psalm setting. Programme to include: Works by Le Jeune, Claude (1528-1600) | ||

| Domkerk, Utrecht, Domplein, Utrecht 3512 JN, Netherlands Sunday 1-Sep-13 08:00pm Lassus: Trionfi A € 35 / € 32 / € 10 B € 30 / € 27 / € 10 Huelgas ensemble / Paul Van Nevel Lassus: Trionfi In literary history Petrarch is chiefly known as the author of the Canzoniere, the cycle of 366 poems inspired by his platonic adoration of the legendary Laura. However, until into the 17th century his cycle Trionfi was by far the most popular work in the Italian language, almost rivalling the fame of Dante’s Divina Commedia. Orlandus Lassus only set fragments of Petrarch’s text to music in his later years. As always, he chose text fragments that allowed his inspiration to blossom and stimulated his poetic imagination: incorporating concepts such as transience, dreams, taking one’s leave, nostalgia for one’s youth and ceremonial glory. Performed by 12 singers, recorders, baroque trombone, violin and gamba, the closing concert of the 2013 Early Music Festival is as much a tribute to Petrarch as to Lassus. After all, thanks to his musical expressive power and versatility, the latter enables us to enter into the intimate world of one of Europe’s greatest humanists. | ||
