Who was Ockeghem and should you care?  Flemish-born (c. 1420) court musician to several French kings, one of the greatest composers of all time, is completely unknown to many listeners today.  Let the professional Renaissance choir Blue Heron and their director, Scott Metcalfe dazzle you with their program of secular songs and Ockeghem's sacred music based on them.  Choral musicians and conductors at every career stage will be inspired by the artistry, intonation, vivid live performance and commitment to historical performance practice by this critically-acclaimed, Boston-based ensemble. Just one exciting feature of the Mass ACDA Summer Conference, July 24-26, based at Hampshire College (Amherst) with a July 27 optional "Berkshire Extension" to Sheffield and Tanglewood!
