Have you ever felt unloved? If so, Julian Perkins’s chamber choir course could be for you! Experience a roller coaster ride of fluctuating emotions as we look at the operatic madrigals of Monteverdi and some of his Italian contemporaries, including Frescobaldi and Gesualdo. Emphasis will be given to the text. How did
the composers of the revolutionary seconda prattica exploit words to achieve such dramatic musical ends? Delicious, cathartic melancholy awaits…
Resident £295 / Non Resident £230.
