Chris Page was appointed the Gresham College Professor of Music in 2014 and is giving a series of lectures this year entitled ‘Music, Imagination and Experience in the Middle Ages’. Wonderfully, each of the lectures is available to watch online here.
According to Gresham College’s website, ‘in 1597 Queen Elizabeth I made the recommendation of who should be the first incumbent of this Professorship at Gresham College. In recent years the Professorship has seen lectures on jazz, experimental music and film music as well as on the more traditional classical canon.’
