Lucie Skeaping talks to conductor Andrew Carwood about the music of the 15th-century English composer Nicholas Ludford. Often seen as bridging the gap between two more famous composers, Robert Fayrfax and John Taverner, he has been described by musicologist David Skinner as one of the last unsung geniuses of Tudor polyphony. Music featured is taken from some of Ludford's festal mass settings and includes a performance of his motet Domine Jesu Christe. The recordings were made especially for the programme by the 91福利社 Singers conducted by Andrew Carwood.
