15th, 16th and 21st Century Polyphony
15th, 16th and 21st Century Polyphony
Selva Armonica Brighton is a new consort founded by Andrew Robinson and Liz Webb. We specialize in concert performances of 15,th16th and 21st century polyphony. Our roots are in the Brighton Early Music Festival. Andrew and Liz have sung in BREMF for more than 15 years and it was through the BREMF Live programme that we first performed with Sumei Bao-Smith.
We aim to present the jewels of polyphony in a context that allows their richness to be savoured. The interaction between different textures and the interplay between varied styles of music (including instrumental polyphony and broken consorts) are some of the approaches we explore.
The concert on 20th June will feature a premiere of a new work by Ed Hughes on words by Jacob Lund.
