Society for Renaissance Studies Concert/Lecture - Public Booking
Description
The Society for Rennaisance Studies invites members of the public to attend this Concert/Lecture which forms part of their 2025 conference.
Thursday 3 July 2025, 17:30-18:30
Speaker: Dr David Bednall.
The Polyphonic Music of the Renaissance Period is revered as one of the great cultural treasures of the world, preserving the art and ethos of the composers of the period. It is also something which is in constant use in contemporary worship around the world and so keeps a living link with the past. Clifton Cathedral (1973) is an iconic piece of brutalist architecture which was designed to keep the essential elements of a traditional cathedral in place whilst giving them a strong modern accent. This talk with live illustrations from the choir will examine how this ancient music is heard afresh in this new building and how this relates to the worship of today.
