The City Musick - The Prince and the Piper
The City Musick - The Prince and the Piper Music in German Court and City 1520-1620 This concert bursts with the joyous sounds of German court and town bands in the long sixteenth century. The versatile players of The City Musick display the varied ways civic and court musicians adopted and adapted vocal polyphony for mixed ensembles of shawms, trombones, cornetts, dulcians, crumhorns, recorders, organs and regals. Repertoire comes from choir and dance books, prints and manuscripts, including the works of some of the titans of renaissance European music; from Ludwig Senfl and Paul Hofhaimer to Johann Hermann Schein, Samuel Scheidt, and Michael Praetorius.
