at the Court of the Emperor Maximilian I
In August 1493 Maximilian I, Archduke of Austria and King of the Romans, assumed the title of Holy Roman Emperor on the death of his father, the Emperor Friedrich. For the next 26 years he ruled over an Empire that was, at times, perilously close to collapse. Music seems to have been his refuge from the trials and tribulations of Imperial politics and unsuccessful campaigns; his musical establishment became second to none in all Europe.
Today's programme reflects something of the diversity of music to be heard at the Imperial Court: an instrumental piece by Isaac. German songs by Isaac and Ludwig Senfl , keyboard music attributed to Maximilian's great organist. Paul Hofhaimer , and a Kyrie from Isaac's vast collection of church music, the Choralis Constantinus: records
