Prom 43

Peter Phillips directs the Tallis Scholars, as the
group celebrates its 40th anniversary, in a Late
Night Prom contrasting the music of John Taverner
and of Carlo Gesualdo, who died 400 years ago.
Taverner was the first organist and choirmaster
of what is now Christ Church, Oxford, falling from
favour a year after his master, Cardinal Wolsey, and
into professional obscurity. Aristocrat and harmonic
adventurer Carlo Gesualdo is best known for the
boldness of his madrigals.Tickets £12 - £16.
