SUMMARY:Echoes of Albion
LOCATION:Saint Ignatius of Antioch Episcopal Church
DESCRIPTION:Music from the English Cloister\, Court\, & Classroom Pre-Conce
 rt Lecture - 6:30 pm From the haunting melodies of medieval England to the
  soaring splendor of the Eton Choirbook\, this program traces the remarkab
 le flowering of English music before the Reformation. Performed by Polyhym
 nia and Concordian Dawn\, it explores a rich musical tradition encompassin
 g sacred devotion\, courtly song\, and dance\, revealing a culture of extr
 aordinary imagination and craftsmanship. The journey begins with the monop
 honic and early polyphonic repertoires of medieval England and passes thro
 ugh the Cambridge Manuscript and the Old Hall Manuscript. Compiled during 
 the reigns of Henry IV and Henry V\, the Old Hall Manuscript preserves wor
 ks by composers such as Leonel Power and John Dunstaple\, whose innovation
 s in harmony and texture helped shape the distinctive sound of English pol
 yphony and influenced musicians across Europe. The program culminates in a
  selection from the Eton Choirbook\, one of the greatest monuments of late
  medieval music. Compiled around 1500 for Eton College\, this extraordinar
 y manuscript preserves large-scale works from the mid to late 15th century
  of breathtaking richness\, featuring elaborate textures\, soaring vocal l
 ines\, and radiant expressions of faith. Alongside these sacred masterpiec
 es\, the concert also highlights the vibrant secular and instrumental trad
 itions that animated England's courts\, towns\, and countryside. Spanning 
 more than three centuries of musical innovation\, this concert offers a ra
 re opportunity to experience the evolution of English musical life—from 
 the refined polyphony of the Lancastrian court to the magnificent choral w
 orks that stood at the threshold of the Renaissance. We want everyone to b
 e able to enjoy our concerts\, and we understand that not everyone may be 
 able to afford the published ticket prices. If you would like a ticket to 
 one of our concerts\, don't hesitate to contact info@polyhymnia-nyc.org\,
