Friday 25 April 2008
University Church

Starts 7.30pm
Ends 9.00pm

Harry Christophers Conductor



The Sixteen performs a programme devoted to three composers born in, or just before, the reign of King Henry VIII (1509-1547) and who not only survived the Reformation but lived through the turbulent times of Edward VI, MaryI and into the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1558-1603), who, by maintaining a religious balancing act managed to secure an established Church.

The music of Christopher Tye, Robert Parsons and Robert White is heard in University Church, itself the setting for many of the famous religious disputes of the time.

There will be a pre-performance talk at 7pm - free to all ticket-buyers.

Book for this and other concerts in The Sixteen's Oxford residency (November 16 2007 and June 21 2008) and receive special discounts.

The Sixteen Previewed

Read The Oxford Times' preview of The Sixteen's concert with us this Friday and their residency with Music at Oxford this season.

'These days, The Sixteen rarely seems to stand still, so its new status as Music at Oxford's Artists in Residence, is something of a triumph for all concerned.'
