Spring 2010: Beyond the Gamut

Chromaticism in the Renaissance

Beyond the Gamut - Chromaticism in the Renaissance

Convivium explores the unique soundscape of Renaissance chromaticism, works employing those notes—written down or implied—that lay outside the standard “gamut” of available pitches. Lassus, Gesualdo, and Hassler will be among the featured composers.
