Conference Missa Aurea: Jennifer Bloxam - Cappella Pratensis
Moderated by Prof. Jennifer Bloxam (Williams College, USA) and with the participation of the singers from Cappella Pratensis, scholars, performers, and music lovers considered the dramatic presentation of Luke's gospel in liturgical drama, painting, and sacred polyphony in order to place the Missae ancilla domini by Du Fay, Ockeghem and Regis in their larger cultural and religious context. The conversation was intended to pave the way for broader reflections on the way in which the sacred arts of the past can be most meaningfully presented to audiences today.
