Originally posted by Serial_Apologist View PostThe Kings Singers were very much seen as Derby & Joan-appealing in their early 70s heyday. One thing they were very good at (in my opinion) was a cappella Renaissance madrigals, probably inaugurating the birth of twee. I have their LP - one side of English madrigals, the other of Italian.
The King's Singers Madrigal History Tour
First broadcast: Sun 13th May 1984, 21:20 on BBC Two England
1: A Century of Song
The Ducal Palace, Mantua, is the starting-point for this expert series about the 'pop' music of the High Renaissance. With a selection of songs that range from the light, witty and erotic to the passionate and heartfelt, The King's Singers outline the rise in popularity of madrigals and show how they became the rage of Europe. Emma Kirkby and the Consort of Musicke, directed by the series' musical adviser, Anthony Rooley , perform additional examples. The programme also offers a panorama of the 16th century as a prelude to the 'tour' which begins next week in France.
