*Mary was Queen Regnant of Scotland, from 14th December, 1542, and Queen
Consort of France from 1558 to 1560. Our concert will be tracing Mary's
turbulent and eventful life from her early days in France, where she
married the Dauphin in 1558, through her disastrous relationship with Queen
Elizabeth I of England, her first cousin once removed.*
*"The Life and Times of Mary, Queen of Scots" will trace Mary's eventful
yet tragic rise and fall through the music of her period, interwoven with
her letters and prayers. Our concert encompasses works from England,
France, Spain, and The Netherlands, including works by Clemens non Papa,
Palestrina, Victoria, Robert Johnson, Tallis, Byrd, Cipriano de Rore,
Alonso Lobo, Jacquet de Mantua and Guillaume Costeley.*
