This evening concert is dedicated entirely to the diverse and extraordinary music of Josquin de Prez (c. 1450-1521). This innovative, compositional genius wrote not only sacred music, but also secular songs in the major languages of the day—Latin, Italian, and French. His expressive musical style led to the development of the madrigal, a quintessential form of the Renaissance. During the concert a commentary will be given by Dr. Kerry McCarthy.
Cantores in Ecclesia, directed by Blake Applegate, is a specialized vocal ensemble dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Gregorian chant and sacred polyphony in liturgical context within the Latin Mass of the Catholic Church.
Tickets are General Admission $25; Seniors and ICL members $5; Willamette University faculty and staff $10. Students are admitted free.
