Dominican music in Oxford: Friday 11th September

From PIMMS

Free concert for PMMS members!

On Friday 11th September, at 6pm in Lincoln College Chapel (Turl Street, Oxford), there will be a PMMS-sponsored concert, showcasing music that can be associated with the Dominican Order--both friars and nuns.  Sung by a small group of Oxford choral scholars, the programme will include Dominican chant, Dominican-composed sequences, Notre-Dame polyphony (used as binding fragments in Dominican books), and trouvere songs compiled by a Dominican. 

The concert is part of a wider conference on the Influences of the Dominican Order in the Middle Ages; thanks to PMMS sponsorship, the concert is open to all PMMS members to attend for free.  To do so, just 

emaileleanor.giraud@lincoln.ox.ac.uk to reserve a place.
