“If you want to escape the usual seasonal fare completely, you could do no better than Mediaeval Carols. Opus Anglicanum presents a feast of words and music of the very highest quality’”
Join Opus Anglicanum on a Christmas journey 800 years back in time, visiting spellbinding music and words from our mediaeval past. Masterworks include Perotin’s spell-binding solo Beata viscera, and Obrecht’s dazzling Factor orbis. Our readings, performed by Zeb Soanes, invite the listener to encounter great mediaeval spiritual thinkers, poets and artists, spanning a thousand years to illuminate the surrounding music.
