The Tallis Scholars at York Minster
The Tallis Scholars perform a nature-inspired programme at York Minster as part of the York Early Music Festival.
The Tallis Scholars and their director Peter Phillips perform at York Minster as part of the York Early Music Festival.
The programme Glorious Creatures is centred around how nature beautifies our lives, from the sun in the sky to the flowers that grow in our gardens (and by extension the grapes from which we make wine!). The title is taken from a new setting of words by Thomas Traherne to music by Nico Muhly, commissioned by the Tallis Scholars. The rest of the programme contains music by Lassus, de Rore, Vivanco, Palestrina, and Dunstable.
