Cowbridge Day 1

The Fountain Singers

 

The Fountain Singers, accompanied by lute and portative organ, presents a programme that uncovers the Renaissance at its most mischievous. Featuring secular Italian and English songs packed with double entendres and cheeky innuendo, the programme shows how the great Renaissance composers delighted audiences across all social classes with music that was witty, bold, and irresistibly entertaining. From the sly humour of Josquin des Prez to the sparkling theatricality of Adriano Banchieri, and the playful word-setting of English masters Thomas Morley and Thomas Weelkes, these works reveal a world of musical wit and invention.
