Festival Laus Polyphoniae / AMUZ (Belgique) – Larmes pour un Maître

It soon became clear that Johannes Ockeghem was one of the greatest composers of the 15th century when none less than Josquin des Prez wrote an impressive and moving piece to commemorate his teacher’s death: Nymphes des bois. Ockeghem had previously paid tribute to his own teacher, Gilles Binchois, with the lament Mort tu as navré de ton dart. The Comet Musicke musicians are united in their quest for poetry and humour in music. Musical storytelling guaranteed!
