Nov 2020 Playday (virtual)

Coach: Amy Domingues
Location: Zoom
Description: Richard Dering, Peter Philips, John Bull, William Brade, Thomas Simpson and William Young were all 17th century English composers who left their homeland for various reasons, including the pressure of religious differences or the search for better career prospects. In this 90min virtual class, participants will explore viol repertoire from these composers through a combination of lecture and specially recorded 4-5 part consort playalong selections. We will compare these lesser known but great composers' compositional styles, output, and the effects of growing Italian musical influences in the mid-17th century.
