RenChorNY Presents: Austro-Hungarian Court Composers
RenChorNY presents Austro-Hungarian Court Composers
|
Like her grandfather Maximilian I, who employed Isaac and Senfl, Mary Queen of Hungary brilliantly employed the Court composer Thomas Stoltzer to set Luther’s new 1524 Hebrew-German Psalm translations to pioneering 6/7vv. polyphony. Ludwig Senfl arranged Josquin’s ‘Ave Maria’ to 6vv.
These and other of their motets and lied are featured by RenChorNY, led by Richard Porterfield. |
