Bērds bija viena no Renesanses laikmeta spilgtākajām figūrām, sakrālās un laicīgās mūzikas autors, kurš izcēlās ar emocionālu dziļumu un polifonijas meistarību. Viņa daiļrade būtiski ietekmējusi angļu mūzikas attīstību. Pirmais Bērda publicētais krājums Psalmes, Sonets, and Songs of Sadnes and Pietie, made into Musicke of Five Parts (1588) apvieno psalmus, sonetus un dziesmas par skumjām un dievbijību, rakstītas piecu balsu vokālajam sastāvam vai instrumentālai izpildīšanai.

Programmā Renaissance Reimagined šie renesanses darbi atdzimst jaunā gaismā, savijoties ar džeza improvizācijām un elektroniskām skaņu faktūrām. 16. gadsimta partitūras pārtop dzīvā dialogā starp vokālu, kontrabasu, klavierēm un elektroniku.

Piedalās:
– Evilena Protektore – vokāls
– Toms Timofejevs – kontrabass
– Artjoms Sarvi – klavieres

Renaissance Reimagined creates a musical bridge between the 16th century and today. The concert program is based on works by the prominent English composer William Byrd, reinterpreted through jazz arrangements performed by Evilena Protektore's trio.

- Free entry
- On June 20 at 20:00, doors from 19:30

Byrd was a central figure of the Renaissance, known for composing both sacred and secular music characterized by emotional depth and polyphonic mastery. His legacy significantly influenced the development of English music. His first published collection, Psalmes, Sonets, and Songs of Sadnes and Pietie, made into Musicke of Five Parts (1588), consists of psalms, sonnets, and songs expressing melancholy and devotion, composed for five-part vocal or instrumental ensembles.

In Renaissance Reimagined, this music gains new life through jazz improvisations and electronic textures. The 16th-century scores are transformed through the dynamic dialogue between vocals, double bass, piano, and electronics.

Performers:
- Evilena Protektore – vocals
- Toms Timofejevs – double bass
- Artjoms Sarvi – piano
The event is supported by the VKKF
