Join us for a live version of Robert Hollingworth’s SingTheScore, as seen on YouTube, but with a difference. In this special insight event he delves into Monteverdi’s 1610 Vespers alongside players from I Fagiolini.

Ever wondered why performances of the Monteverdi Vespers sound so different?  In this lecture-recital (a live version of Robert Hollingworth’s Youtube series www.ifagiolini.com/singthescore ), find out what issues performers grapple with before even knowing what singers and players to book.

What pitch to perform at, what Monteverdi’s voice types were, whether speeds are just an artistic choice and are there any issues that might interest the Ficta Police?

Bring a score if you like but examples will be shown onscreen. (NB: This is a not a ‘come and sing’.)

This event will last approximately 45 minutes, without an interval.
