Dutch Clogs
By the early 16th century, virtually every major musical centre in Europe was run by a musician from the Low Countries. Lucie Skeaping explores the incredible and unexplained golden age of Netherlanders. Composers such as Dufay, Binchois, Ockeghem and Josquin are featured. Jacques Maassen, director of the Netherlands Carillon School in Amersfoort, also guides us through the age-old tradition of carillon playing in the Low Countries.
