About the event
Medieval Music for The Patron Saint of Musicians
Step back in time, to fifteenth century England. Join this pilgrimage through the world medieval music and literature – a journey inspired by the discovery of a manuscript in Lambeth Palace containing an office for Saint Cæcelia’s day according to the Use of York (Eboracum ). The programme is structured into three nocturns, each with three readings. The story of the Saint unfolds with a steady rhythm: polyphony, reading, chant.
