| Royal Albert Hall, London, Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AP, United Kingdom Tuesday 27-Aug-13 07:00pm Prom 60 Sir Andrew Davis conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the cast and chorus of Glyndebourne Festival’s production of Britten’s Billy Budd. Adapted by E. M. Forster and Eric Crozier from Herman Melville’s unfinished novella, Britten’s 1951 opera on the persecution and destruction of pure-hearted sailor Billy by a predatory master-at-arms is a tragedy of ‘sexual discharge gone evil’ in the Napoleonic Wars. Jacques Imbrailo sings the title-role, with Brindley Sherratt as the sinister Claggart and Mark Padmore as the rule-bound Pontius Pilate figure, Captain ‘Starry’ Vere.Tickets £14 - £57.

Premièred in 1697 under the direction of Marin Marais, L’Europa galante is the first opéra-ballet in which the various scènes share a single unifying theme. Thus, we will be presented with amorous scenes from four different countries: France, Spain, Italy and Turkey. These provide the ingredients for an imaginary European journey, in this case one with a French flavour. Campra, Andre (1660-1744), L'Europe galante (scenes) | ||

He travelled throughout Europe in the Emperor’s wake. The younger Lassus ended up in Italy; he was one of the few Flemish composers not to be employed by Charles or his son Philip. The leading British ensemble Stile Antico unites these two figures around the Song of Songs, with motets by Lassus and Gombert’s Missa Quam Pulchra es. The concert opens and concludes with two different settings of the Magnificat. Programme to include: Works by de Lassus, Orlande (1532-1594) | ||

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) | ||
