Abstract

Astoundingly prolific, adept in multiple styles and languages, writer of sublime harmonies and lewd parodies, Orlando di Lasso was renowned for much of the 16th century as a supreme musician and master of composition. The combination of Brandeis' large collection of period instruments with solo voices is enhanced by the wonderful acoustics of the Harlan Chapel. Sarah Mead, director.
