El primer jardín es un terreno de bosque cercado y cultivado: un hortus conclusus. Durante siglos, el jardín o huerto ha sido un lugar tan espiritual como terrenal, tan erótico como místico, un rincón entre el cielo y la tierra. A través de las obras de Palestrina, Hildegard von Bingen, Orlando di Lasso, Rodrigo de Ceballos, Thomas Morley, Delalande, Handel y Bach escucharemos el huerto de los monasterios, los jardines de laberintos renacentistas o las fuentes de Versalles.Escuchar audio

Sherwood Forest in the County of Nottinghamshire lays claim to a world famous tree, The Major Oak. It may well have harbored Robin Hood and his merry men, or perhaps people like them. Admirers from all over the world visit the beloved English oak, drawn by the legend.  Two guests from the Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve help describe why the tree is so special. One is Paul Cook, the Warden tasked with maintaining the woodland and the landscape. The other is the Sheriff of Nottingham, or, that is, Richard Townsley, a tour guide and local authority on Robin Hood. There's an aura around this tree thanks to the legend, but the allure and lasting popularity of England's arboreal icon has become about so much more. GuestsPaul CookWardenSherwood Forest National Nature Reserve, RSPBRichard TownsleyTour Guide - Sheriff of NottinghamSherwood Forest National Nature Reserve, RSPBConsulting EditorDavid Still, IIReader Nigel Holmesnigelholmes.com(excerpts from The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood by Howard Pyle, edited by Jonathan Kelley, The Townsend Press, Inc.)Recorder MusiciansDavid BorKim WassRecorder Music"Light of love," Anonymous"When that I was and a little tiny boy," anonymous Shakespearean stage tune"When lo, by break of morning," Thomas Morley, 1595"It was a lover and his lass," Thomas Morley, 1600"Tres douce dame que j'aour," Guillaume de Machaut, 14th c."We Be Soldiers Three," Thomas Ravenscroft, 1609Special thanks to:Rob James, Sherwood ForestPhoto creditSherwood Forest National Nature Reserve, RSPBTheme MusicDiccon Lee, www.deeleetree.comArtworkDahn Hiuni, www.dahnhiuni.com/homeWebsitethisoldtree.showTranscripts available.Follow onFacebook or Instagram We want to hear about the favorite tree in your life!

Tom was inspired by his father's service in Vietnam to join the military and attend West Point. Tom embraced the military and academic challenges, but chafed at the restrictive rules of the Academy. Tom needed to know the basics, in order for him to understand what informed risks he could take. Tom's time at West Point and as an Aviation officer gave him that experience. Tom left the Army during a period of personal loss at home and disillusionment with his experiences in overseas. Tom found his way and his purpose when he opened himself up to a new perspective and new adventure with humanitarian aid overseas. This is his story. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/joe-harrison0/support

Hello dear friends! Today we have a special episode without sight-reading! This episode is dedicated to a concert we performed in May: Lost Paradise. The concert follows the transformation of Lucifer, as written by John Milton and re-formatted as a libretto by John Dryden.   We will be talking to our friend and colleague Chris Wattam, who sang in the concert, and discuss the concept, process and final product. You will hear excepts from the concert: improvisations as well as music by Henry Purcell, Thomas Morley, William Byrd. At the end, as a special treat, Chris will recite a text heard in the concert in original pronunciation.  About Milton's Paradise Lost About John Dryden's work Thomas Morley: Deep Lamenting Many thanks to Adrian King for the electronic sounds and his precious participation.

Today we go over differing possibilities of tone when performing early music and/or historical music, a great interview with Dr. Andrew Crane, the Director of Choral Activities at Brigham Young University, and a composer profile on Thomas Morley.

Chris, Melanie, and Zack discuss the renewed debate over the present and future of U.S.-Russian relations. Two competing open letters make the case for or against the status quo, which is increasingly characterized by deep suspicion and rising tension. Is Vladimir Putin to blame? Or do the roots of U.S.-Russian enmity run deeper? Are constructive diplomatic relations impossible so long as Putin is in charge? Or should U.S. policymakers look past Putin’s many offenses in the interest of reducing the risk of conflict? The crew give a special attaboy to Brent Scowcroft, who died earlier this month. Scowcroft was national security advisor to two U.S. presidents and counselor to at least four others. Zack also praises the protesters in Belarus and Melanie gives a special shout out to Polish filmmaker Agniezska Holland for “Mr. Jones,” a film about a young journalist who blew the lid off the Holodomor, the manmade famine in Ukraine which killed millions in the early 1930s.   Links Rose Gottemoeller, Thomas Graham, Fiona Hill, et al, “It’s Time to Rethink Our Russia Policy,” POLITICO, August 5, 2020 David J.

Donald Macleod introduces six composers who flourished under the rule of Elizabeth I. The composers of 16th century England flourished under the rule of Elizabeth I, rapidly developing a diverse musical culture unparalleled anywhere on the continent, a truly Golden Age for English music. In this week of programmes Donald Macleod explores six composers who were key to this ascent - Thomas Morley, John Bull, Peter Philips, Thomas Weelkes, Orlando Gibbons and Thomas Tomkins. These composers were all active at around the same time as the “Father of British Musick” William Byrd and John Dowland, and all either studied or worked with Byrd, but they don’t often receive the same attention as those more famous names. Music featured: Morley: It was a Lover and his lass / Hard by a Crystal Fountain / Now is the month of maying; Sing we and chant it; On a fair morning / Cruel, Wilt Thou Persever / Magnificat and Nunc Dimitis from First Service / Tomkins: Fantasia a 6 no. 18 / Too Much I Once Lamented (for Byrd) / Oft did I marle (c.1622) / Know You Not / Cloris When As I Woo / O Let Me Live for True Love / Be Strong and of good courage / Offertory / Thou Art My King / Pavan “for these distracted times” / The Lady Folliot’s Galliard / Burial Sentences Bull: Chromatic Pavan and Galliard MB 87a/b / Pavan No 2 (from Parthenia) / Almighty God, Which by the leading of a Star / Fantasia on a fugue of Sweelinck / Coranto – Alarm / Pavan & Galliard “St Thomas Wake” Philips: Hodie beata Virgo Maria; Surgens Jesus; Ave Verum Corpus / Pavan & Galliard (arr. Philips based on Morley’s originals) / Lasso, non e morir / Amarilli (after G. Caccini) / Gaude Maria virgo / Salve Regina / Pavan & Galliard in memory of Lord Paget / Pavan and Galliard Dolorosa Gibbons: Prelude in D minor / See, See the World is Incarnate / The Silver Swan (c.1611) / Fantasia No 5 in G minor / O Clap your hands / Lord Salisbury’s Pavan and Galliard from Parthenia / Nay Let me weep (Part 1) / O Lord in thy Wrath, Rebuke me Not Weelkes: As Vesta was from Latmos Hill Descending / O Lord, Grand the King a Long Life / O Care Thou Wilt Dispatch Me (Parts 1 and 2) / Come, Sirrah Jack, ho! / Thule, the period of cosmology – The Andalusian merchant / Death hath deprived me of my dearest friend Alfonso Ferrabosco the Elder: Questi ch'indizio fan del mio tormento Presented by Donald Macleod Produced by Sam Phillips for BBC Wales For full tracklistings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for England’s Golden Age https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0005nly And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we’ve featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

May is National Chamber Music Month! Oh, what? You’re not excited? Maybe that’s because you don’t know exactly what chamber music is yet. Which means you should probably listen to this research presentation to find out more about it. Then you, too, can get excited about a form of music that’s had an effect on everything from symphonies to garage bands. Whoo chamber music!! Audio production by Todd “T Bone” Hulslander with apoplectic paroxysms of approval from Dacia Clay. Music in this research presentation includes: – “(Nothing But) Flowers” performed by David Byrne, Ethel, and Thomas Dolby – “I Wanna Be Sedated” from Road to Ruin by the Ramones – “New England Journey” by Brad Sayles – February: Scherzo from Das Jahr by Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, played by Sarah Rothenberg – “Cuckolds All A-row” from the Art of the Bawdy Song by the Baltimore Consort – “Joyne Hands” by Thomas Morley played by the Baltimore Consort – Quartet No. 62 in C major (“Emperor” or “Kaiser”), Op. 76, No. 3, FHE No. 42, Hoboken No. III:77 by Joseph Haydn – Symphonie Fantastique, 5th mvmt., Songe d’une nuit de sabbat by Hector Berlioz – Ornithology (1946) by Charlie Parker Septet – “Artists Only” from More Songs About Buildings and Food by the Talking Heads – String Quintet in E flat major, Op. 97 by Antonín DvoÅ™ák performed by the Emerson String Quartet

Upon his death, the great English composer William Byrd was acclaimed as the "father of Musick". But what was his musical legacy? Catherine Bott explores the lives and music of some of the great composer's students, featuring music from Thomas Tomkins, Peter Philips, Thomas Morley and John Bull.

It’s a good thing that William Shakespeare was born in the spring—April 26—because his sonnets are crammed with sumptuous images of ripe nature bursting its bounds. And for a good many years the Cornelia Street Café has celebrated the playwright’s birthday with a reading of selected sonnets.   There is a hint of the tavern about the restaurant’s downstairs performance space, so it was well suited to the April 25 performance put together by veteran actor Paul Hecht. Hecht was joined this year by Rachel Botchan, Barbara Feldon, and Peter Francis James (readers), Jacqueline Horner-Kwiatek (soprano) and Simon Mulligan (pianist) providing some suitable Elizabethan airs in intervals between the sonnets. One planned diversion was a sonnet mash—all four actors professed to liking Sonnet 29 best (“When in disgrace…” etc), so all four had a go at it. The unplanned diversion was the interruption—during Horner-Kwiatek’s rendering of Thomas Morley’s “It Was a Lover and His Lass,” which has recurring images of bell chimes—of a chiming cell phone in a complementary key. The sympathetic audience responded with a wave of laughter as robust as any that might have been offered by Will’s original audiences. Listen to selections from the readings at the link above.
