About this concert
Energetic, intellectual, eloquent and confident: in the Missa Gaudeamus we encounter a grown-up Josquin Desprez, who shows off with bravura all the compositional techniques and stylistic elements of his day. Cantus firmus and canon techniques go hand in hand with melodic ingenuity, rhythmic complexity and sophisticated climax-building. In the hands of the multiple prize-winning Stile Antico, this work, alternated with Josquin’s motets including Ave Maria and Salve Regina, shines like new.

About the performers
Stile Antico is a much-praised vocal ensemble of young British singers which, without a conductor, concentrates on the polyphonic repertoire of the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Early Baroque. Its debut CD Song of Songs won the Gramophone Award for Early Music. Stile Antico has performed at the BBC Proms, in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw and at numerous international festivals.
