Entitled Missa Bell’ Amfitrit’ altera, the Iken Scholars will present a new programme of music composed by Orlande de Lassus during his long employment at the Bavarian court. Included are rarely heard prize-winning compositions, pieces inspired by his travels and possibly the last piece Lassus ever composed.
Established in 2012, the Iken Scholars are a London-based chamber choir dedicated to exploring hidden corners of the Renaissance repertoire. Recent performances at the Cadogan Hall, St John’s Smith Square and St Paul’s Cathedral have included masses and motets unheard in 400 years, as well as large-scale masterpieces from the central canon. Primarily focused on presenting unusual concerts in the capital, the choir is increasingly in demand in London’s cathedrals and further afield. The group is made up of singers from London and close by, and directed by Matthew Dunn.
