#3342: Music Out of Time
New music made on old instruments, and older music in positively modern settings is what’s in store for this New Sounds program. Listen to a record from the early music vocal group Orlando Consort in collaboration with jazz rock band Perfect Houseplants, called “Extempore” – literally “out of time.” There’s also a folk setting involving banjo of a 14th Century tune by Guillaume de Machaut, and music by abbess, composer, and recently sainted Hildegard von Bingen in a decidedly modern arrangement from violist (and viola d’amore wielder) Garth Knox.
Also, listen to instruments from the Middle East, combining modern production techniques and medieval chant from German group Sarband. Plus, original compositions for voice and electronics from English composer Ambrose Field and English singer John Potter based on works by Renaissance composer Guillaume Dufay. And more.
