Programme:
JOHN TAVERNER: Mass and motet O Wilhelme
ANON: 15th century York Mass
BRYARS | ROWARTH | MOORE
Following on from the 2016 Minster Mystery Plays, The Ebor Singers explore medieval York, a centre of culture and learning, tracing a path through three centuries of the city’s history. We move from music for the 14th century cycle of Mystery Plays, through to a late 15th century mass that was almost lost during the Reformation when the manuscript was used for binding legers in York Minster, and a 16th century mass by John Taverner honouring St William of York. Works by Gavin Bryars, Ben Rowarth and Philip Moore provide contemporary reflections on York’s history.
