  • Manuscript Illumination with Scenes of Easter in an Initial A, from an Antiphonary ca. 1320
    Oh Haec: This is the Day the Lord Has Made
    Wendy Gillespie
    There’s an antiphon that features in the masses for Easter Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Its words begin: “This is the day the Lord has made,” and ends with a joyous Alleluya. This hour, exultant music for Easter.
  • Fortuna spinning her wheel from Boccaccio's De casibus virorum illustrium.
    Big Wheel Keeps on Turning
    Wendy Gillespie
    For hundreds of years, the goddess Fortune and her wheel have offered us a way to comprehend the unpredictability of life. This hour on Harmonia, we’ll look back to the fourteenth century and explore the appearances of Fortune in music as people try to make sense of famine, plague, political and religious strife. Join us!
