Josquin des Prez paid homage to his predecessors through the use of imitation. By the same token, subsequent composers played this game as a deliberate tribute, utilizing the same texts, melodies, and other characteristics of his music. The acclaimed Cappella Pratensis, known for their period interpretations, makes their Miller debut in its Early Music series with a program anchored by Josquin masterpieces and exploring some of the great polyphonic works of the period by composers who inspired Josquin and those who were later inspired by him.
Miller Theatre's Early Music series features renowned ensembles from all over the globe that explore the musical riches of the pre-Classical era, from Medieval chant to Renaissance polyphony to Baroque orchestral music. Learn more: http://www.millertheatre.com/event-series/early-music
