Codex Occo Music Workshop in Kraków

We invite you to join a special project in which we follow Marcel Peres in exploration of the world of renaissance polyphony. We sing the music from the Occo Codex (beginning of the XVI c.), including Missa Pange Linge of Josquin des Pres.

The music is generally for 4 voices, but we work also monodic Office to the Most Holy Sacrament of St. Thomas d’Acquin (XIII). We read the music from the original mensural notation. The upcoming workshop will be in Cracow (Poland) on 15-19 of January.

The session is in English so don’t worry about the language. In the previous sessions of the project (this will be the sixth one, but you can join thus late) there have been an Estonian, Hungarian and Lithuanian, so don’t be afraid to come – Polish is not obligatory. For the final performance we will sing during the Holy Mass. We don’t have many other English materials, but to learn more you can watch also the invitation to the previous session, which is also in English:
