Music of the Medieval Rites
Charles Cole
A series of concerts devoted to the music of different Christian Rites will take place shortly. Initially conceived by Jonathan Ayers and his choir, the Capella Duriensis which featured in this post last summer, each concert will feature music from the Old Roman, Beneventan, Sarum, Braga, Byzantine, Ambrosian and Gallic rites. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) is disseminating the series across a number of European radio stations including Sarrländischer Rundfunk which will be broadcasting every concert live at 20h04 German time on the dates below at this link.
