Orlande de Lassus: 12-16 January

[doversoul1]

Apologies for Liszt fans. This is nest week.

… Donald Macleod surveys the life and music of Orlande de Lassus ....

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04xrsl0

Very much looking for it.

Web editors, please, if you have time to copy and paste all these blubs, can you spend that time for publishing the play list? Just the topic of the day’s programme is sufficient on the website. We hear the rest from Donald Macleod (much better put).

They don't make it easy do they, dovers?
But here's a way of finding the playlists.

Click on your link above.
Click on Episodes
Click on Orlande de Lassus...view episodes (they come up, stupidly in reverse order)
Click on the episode you want
Then click 'show more' and magically the playlist appears at the end of the text.

O Gawd! Maybe someone can suggest an easier way???

[doversoul1]

Does it appear before the programme is broadcast (it doesn’t on my PC screen)? I like to know what/whom I am/shall be listening. In the way I can with Through the Night. Or is somebody somewhere pretending that this is a live programme?

[ardcarp]

Does it appear before the programme is broadcast

Yes, all 5 playlists are there now, but you have to dig around as prescribed above!

Good luck,

a.

[doversoul1]

Ah yes. I’ve just found it. Thanks!! But why on earth couldn’t this be published on the day’s page instead of those copy-and-pastes?

So, here are the performers on the first programme (looks great):
Huelgas Ensemble, Collegium Vocale Gent, and Odhecaton

As will no doubt become apparent during next week, Lassus was the most prolific and cosmopolitan of composers, writing in addition to all his music for the chuch, a load of secular stuff too in many genres. Choral Wiki has a good list:

As students we used to dig out largely unopened editions of Lassus Masses and sing through them for fun. I don't know why but one in particular, Missa super "Frere Thibault", sticks in the memory...and I've not heard or seen it since.

Starting today.

The playlist that ardcarp discovered, which I definitely saw has now disappeared. Absurder and absurder.

It gives the impression that the playlists are posted exclusively for the benefit of those using the iPlayer after the broadcast.

Thank you mercia.

From 2006
Donald Macleod steps back in time to 16th-century mainland Europe, to explore the life and musical world of one of the most prolific and widely admired musicians of the age - Orlande de Lassus. His guide is the distinguished musicologist and conductor Jeremy Summerly.

2014
A cosmopolitan composer who became so famous he was known as "The divine Orlando", this week Donald Macleod surveys the life and music of Orlande de Lassus.

Unless they are too busy copying and pasting to tell us about Jeremy Summerly, which is not at all unlikely, it seems that this week's programmes are new.
