Devised and introduced by Basil Lam
English Church Music
The programme ranges In time from Fayrfax and Cornyshe, who were both represented in the Eton Choirbook, to Tye. an important pioneer of Anglican church music, and White, who. but for his early death, might have played a similar role In the development of the English madrigal. In their midst comes Sheppard, whose Libera Nos is surely one of the gems of the English Renaissance.

' It's curious that the Trio-Sonata, the most popular example of baroque sonata form and the one that was clearly the most profitable to produce, should nowadays be so neglected,whileitsclassicalcounterpart - the essentially Germanic string quartet - flourishes as the epitome of the chamber music idiom of its period.'
Christopher Hogwood begins his weekly series of 15 programmes about the Trio-Sonata by surveying the way in which Its' ' principles of thought ' extended to parallel vocal works throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. The programme includes vocal music, sacred and secular, by Monteverdi, Frescobaldi, Handel, Couperin and J. C. Bach. Handel's Trio-Sonata in B minor. Op 2 No 1, is also included to represent the instrumental Trio-Sonata at the height of its development and popularity.
All of the music In these programmes has been specially recorded for the series, and all of it is played on instruments of the period or modern copies. The performers this week are the ACADEMY OF ANCIENT MUSIC Judith Nelson (soprano) Emma Kirkby (soprano) Stephen Preston (flute)
Christopher Hirons (violin) Monica Huggett (violin) Anthony Pleeth (cello) director CHRISTOPHER HOGWOOD (harpsichord and organ)
