Musicians of the King’s Road a cappella
Stratton Bull (Cappella Pratensis), conductor
Ilpo Laspas, organ
Duration of concert: about 1 hour 25 minutes
In this concert, Musicians of the King’s Road performs under the direction of the legendary singer and conductor Stratton Bull. Bull is a pioneer of authentic performance practice and has led performances in which singers use Renaissance notation and read the music from a single music stand.
As far as is known, this is also the first time that an actual Renaissance music stand is used in a concert in Turku Cathedral.
The organ is played by Ilpo Laspas.
