Zenobia Música course with Peter Phillips 2015.
The sessions will be led by Peter Phillips and Rupert Damerell together with current members of The Tallis Scholars.
Each day will have sessions for full choir for larger-scale polyphonic pieces and working other polyphony and chant in smaller groups with the members of The Tallis Scholars. We especially welcome pre-formed groups (SATB)
At the end of the day there will be an informal recreation of the evening offices, performing the music studied that day.
This music will be presented in a public concert at the end of the course in a XVIth century convent church.
The course begins on August 16 2016 at 11.00 am and ends on August 20 at 21:30.
The course is being held in the city of Ávila, in the heart of historic Castille, at the Real Monasterio de Santo Tomás, which was for a time home to the “Catholic Kings” Ferdinand and Isabella at the end of the XVth century. There is lodging with full board in the Monastery’s Residence available for those course participants who wish it. The grounds have fine gardens and shady areas also to enjoy in family if you would like to come accompanied. In addition, it is very close to the centre of the city, with the historic and cultural heritage that this city enjoys. Ávila boasts a wide variety of hotels and other accommodation available to participants.
The participants do not have to reserve the lodging in the monastery directly, in the case of staying there. The organisation of the course already has a block booking of rooms to allocate to the students who would like them.The lodging is paid directly to the monastery and the price for full board is 44 euros/ day per person in a single room, and 38.50 euros/ day per person in a double room.
