ABOUT

“Computers and Renaissance musicians have at least one thing in common: they can run simple algorithmic processes on fragments of music to create vastly more complex and nuanced musical compositions.” – Jaran Feeley


In this modern age the ‘algorithm’ (an unambiguous set of rules which solves a problem) has a great presence in our lives, from sending a message on our mobile phones, to learning and reading music with midi files and tablet computers. Due to popular demand, we are revisiting the concept of an ancient musical algorithm – the canon – which results in some of the most unexpectedly sublime works of the Renaissance period by Byrd, Tallis and Tye. We will also create our own complex canon as we improvise on the Medieval English song ​Sumer is icumen in.
