The Old Hall Manuscript is the largest, most complete and most significant source of English sacred music of the late 14th, early 15th centuries. On Friday's Distant Mirror you can hear selected motets from the manuscript: works by Lionel Power, Thomas Dammett, John Cooke and others, all performed by legendary countertenor Russell Oberlin. Also on the program are chansons by Claude Le Jeune and madrigals from Monteverdi's second book. Join Allan Kelly at 10pm.
