- Andrew Kirkman director
Peyton and Barber Professor of Music Andrew Kirkman takes to the stage with his award-winning vocal group, the Binchois Consort. This performance showcases the AHRC-funded project Aural Histories: Coventry 1451-1642, a musical and architectural history that seeks new insights into the experience of music in the City of Coventry during a period of immense cultural change.
Today’s concert features music appropriate to the first of the project’s two ‘time-slices’: 1451, when Henry VI attended Mass in St Michael’s church (the former Coventry Cathedral); and 1528, when a new organ was built for the (still standing) church of Holy Trinity.
