Ockeghem and Obrecht
Thirteenth in a series of 28 programmes devised and introduced by Basil Lam.
The period immediately after Dufay was for long caught between the Scylla 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 18thcentury 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 '.

2: Canvey Island
' A grey sun has risen, oil flares shoot into a mackerel sky. It is damp with the cold. Flat land has a different perspective. A merchant ship's s hooting, but I see no sea. Over vetches and celandine we come to a hut in a wood. There's May and blackberry shoots, the first of this season's dandelions.'
