Ut Re Mi Fa Sol La
Alfonso Ferrabosco I (1543 - 1588)

The Italian composer Ferrabosco I lived and worked in England. His instrumental music was extensive - fantasias, pavans, galliards, In Nomines and passamezzos, all written for a variety of instrumental combinations including lutes and viols. This piece is based on the hexachord, the first six tones of the major scale, a common technique for this period.

This performance was part of Consort 8's concert, Voces Angelorum, which was held in the Santa Sabina Chapel Strathfield on Saturday April 12 2025.

Musicians:
Viols:   Sue Christie
             Jane Grimm
             Cathy Upex

Ut Re Mi Fa Sol La

Miserere
Robert Mallorie (16th Century)

There would appear to be no information about Robert Mallorie. The manuscript for the Miserere is in the Dow Partbooks, a collection of five partbooks compiled by the calligrapher Robert Dow in Oxford around 1581- 88. Miserere refers to Psalm 51 with its opening words "Miserere mei, Deus", (Have Mercy on me O God). The music of Mallorie’s Miserere soars and is anchored by the middle part which plays a syncopated pedal note throughout the piece.

This performance was part of Consort 8's concert, Voces Angelorum, which was held in the Santa Sabina Chapel Strathfield on Saturday April 12 2025.

Miserere 16th C

Proporcions To The Minum
John Baldwin (1560 - 1615)

The complex proportions found within this music reflect the fascination with proportion that pervaded Elizabethan intellectual tradition. John Baldwin was fond of puzzles and proportional exercises. His Proporcions To The Minum (1603), is quite challenging for recorder players. The cantus firmus in the bass part is based on five pulses. The upper 3 parts use proportions of 2:3, 4:3, 8:3, and eventually 16:3; only the sustained bass keeps the original pulse. Despite the unsettling nature of the changing proportions, the effect is one of graceful fluidity.

Sancti Dei omnes (medieval music)

Time is something we never have enough of or have too much of... depending on our situations and perspective. Sometimes we may even step out of its flow... Is time playing with us? Do we play with time? As musicians we certainly do! A gigue is an old dance form (think: 'jig')  - one of several used in baroque music.

Ryszard Lubieniecki – composer, musicologist, instrumentalist, and improviser from Poland. He studied composition (1st degree,  with prof.

In 2023, Ryszard defended his PhD thesis at the Institute of Musicology at the University of Wrocław, where he currently studies late medieval music and works as a lecturer. His recent research focuses on the memory craft and its relationship to musical and theoretical sources from the XV century. Besides the accordion, he plays medieval keyboard instruments (portative organ, hammered clavisimbalum).
