THE ART OF THE NETHERLANDS

The next NOVA concert (March 9th) will be rather special. It's NOVA's tenth anniversary as Bristol's specialist early music vocal ensemble. (Thank you for your support and encouragement over these last years.) And 2025 is also the fiftieth anniversary of David Munrow's ground-breaking recording of then rarely heard music by Flemish composers like Ockeghem, Josquin, Isaac, Compere, Brumel and Tinctoris. The recordings in 1975 and their release the following year were a true milestone in the story of early music and opened up an entire world of Renaissance music for modern singers and audiences. NOVA's programme, The Art of the Netherlands, will include many items from Munrow's programme, and other works by his featured composers.
 
Do come and help us celebrate this double anniversary. Sunday March 9th 8.00pm in All Saints, Pembroke Road BS8 3ED. Programme at the door £10, Students £5 and accompanied under 16s free.
