Hannah French is joined by conductor Graham Ross to explore some modern rediscoveries of Palestrina's music, 500 years after the composer's birth. In recent years, Graham has conducted a number of first recordings of Palestrina's works, including the Missa Sine nomine with the Bevan Family Consort, and more recently, the Missa Emendemus in melius with the choir of Clare College Cambridge. Hannah and Graham also discuss how Palestrina can be placed in a historical context by hearing his music alongside works by some of the composer's English contemporaries, including Mundy and Byrd. Producer: Ben Collingwood. To listen to this programme using most smart speakers just say "Ask ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to play The Early Music Show".
