Musical Tapestries of England
Experience the music during the time of Shakespeare in Elizabethan England! In this guide you’ll listen to music from Whitehall Palace - the largest palace in Europe during its time and the primary residence of English monarchs from 1530-1698. Within its walls, the finest art, theater and music of the Golden Age of England could be found. In this month we will listen to the royal court music of three English monarchs and hear music develop into a richly toned palate that creates intricate designs, sings stories of the human heart, shines with as much dimension as a Renaissance painting, and has just the right amount of rhythmic flair needed for dancing at an Elizabethan Masque ball.
