'A Spotless Rose' Not to Be Missed at Sage Gateshead 25.11.09
Gabrieli Consort December debut named by BBC Music Magazine as one of the Top 20 Best Christmas Events.
The Gabrieli Consort, directed by Paul McCreesh presents a special version of their a cappella programme, A Spotless Rose, for their debut at the Sage Gateshead on Tuesday 22 December 2009 at 7.30pm.
BBC Music Magazine, which has just listed the concert as one of the UK's Top 20 Best Christmas Events writes, "Although Paul McCreesh and his Gabrieli Consort were conspicuous trailblazers in the art of the period reconstruction, they're also rather drawn to the thoughtful anthologising - exploring a theme with provocatively ear-stretching justapositions. 'A Spotless Rose' scatters petals from the rich legacy of music honouring the Virgin Mary - Josquin and Mouton to Howells and Adès."
