Saturday
Catherine Bott presents a programme of music from the winners of last year's York Early Music Festival Young Artist Award: Profeti della Quinta. They'll be singing music by the Italian Jewish composer Salamone Rossi "Il Mantovano Hebreo", who was served at the court of Mantua from 1587 to 1628.
Martin Handley played a short piece by Salamone Rossi on Breakfast (before Carmen Fantasie by F. Waxman) and said, ‘if this sort of Italian Renaissance music is to your taste, look no further than to today’s Prom’s repeat this afternoon. La Tarantella performed by L'Arpeggiata’. Surely, he was /had meant to refer to this EMS?
Sunday
Lucie Skeaping explores the life and musical passions of one of the most important and influential women of the Italian Renaissance, Isabella d'Este. Featuring music from, amongst others, Ockeghem, Josquin, Cara and Tromboncino (R).
Works by many ‘less often played’ composers.
