Basilinda Consort: Carols at the Convent
Saturday, December 9, 2023
Oxford’s premier upper voice ensemble returns to Christ Church to reveal newly-discovered music for Advent and Christmas from Baroque English convents in Europe.
From the flashiest French masterpieces and virtuosic English motets to gentle Dutch lullabies – alongside some familiar favourites – enter a wonderful musical world and join us for a musical journey through early modern England, France, and the Low Countries at Christmas, all within the former priory of Christ Church Cathedral.
The Basilinda Consort is an early music ensemble dedicated to exploring the musical lives of English Christian women religious. Focused on exiled English convent music, we explore the rich history of medieval and early modern English women as singers, players, composers, commentators, writers, and even bookbinders.
