Approved

500 years after his death, Renaissance prince of polyphony Josquin des Prez goes centre stage at this Cadogan Hall Prom, given by British vocal ensemble the Marian Consort.

British vocal ensemble the Marian Consort makes its Proms debut with a concert celebrating Renaissance master Josquin des Prez 500 years after his death. In a season of musical borrowings, three of Josquin’s greatest motets, all drawing on pre-existing material, are paired with three musical homages – including the kaleidoscopic Inviolata, integra et casta es by the first published black composer, Vicente Lusitano – that each rework Josquin’s own music for a new age.
