Music Tensho Boys Might Have Heard
This historical performance by students of the College of Fine Arts at Boston University presents music by the composers who were working in the European cities visited by the so-called "Tensho Embassy” from Japan in the 1580s. The Tensho Embassy included four young Japanese boys sent by the Christian Lord Otomo Sorin to the Pope and the kings of Europe in 1582. They arrived in Lisbon in 1584, and visited Madrid, Venice, Ferrara, Vincenza, and Mantua, in addition, of course, to Rome.
Music by Pedro de Cristo, Duarte Lobo, Tomas Luis de Victoria, Andrea Gabrieli, Giovanni Gabrieli, Luzzasco Luzzaschi, Alessandro Striggio, Leone Leoni, Giaches de Wert, Luca Marenzio, Emilio del Cavalieri, and Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina.
Featuring Karen Burciaga and Emily Dahl (violins), Chris Belluscio and Nathaniel Cox (cornetti), Liza Malamut, Dan Meyers, Gregory Rock, and Motoaki Kashino (sackbuts), and singers Katie Boardman, Samantha Harrison, Joelle Lachance, Sam Kjellberg, and Brett Kostrzewski.
