We look forward welcoming Lizzie Gutteridge to lead our October workshop. The Harmonice Musices Odhecaton (One Hundred Harmonic Songs) is an anthology of polyphonic secular songs by Ottaviano Petrucci. It was published in Venice in 1501, and was the first book of polyphonic music ever to be printed using movable type. Many of the compositions are anonymous, but those which are not include works by some of the most famous composers of the time, such as Josquin des Pres, Alexander Agricola, Jacob Obrecht, Johannes Okeghem and Antoine Busnois. For this workshop, Lizzie will take a look at a few of the most famous pieces from the manuscript, alongside some that perhaps deserve to be better known.
Lizzie will also bring printed books about the music we’re covering today and more, which will retail at £12. There’s a special offer for workshop participants to buy this for £6 (limited to one copy each). She’ll also bring other editions and CDs to buy.
