Ockeghem and Obrecht
The 13th in a series of 28 programmes devised and introduced by Basil Lam.
The period immediately after Dufay was for long caught between the Scvlla of ill-informed comment and the Charybdis of total neglect. However, it was no doubt Ockeghem's ability to fashion a lyrical structure out of a seemingly mathematical scheme which led the 18th-century theorist Marpurg to describe him as ' the Bach of his time ': whilst in our own day Heinrich Besseler has called Obrecht ' the outsider of genius '.
