Time Stands Still

How was time shaped and made in the music and poetry of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century in England? How did composers respond to the complexities of temporal metaphors and the basic unfolding of time in the rhythm and meter of language and poetry? On October 25, Dr Miranda Stanyon, Senior Lecturer in English and Theatre Studies at the University of Melbourne and an expert in early modern poetics, joined leading Australian early music specialists Rosemary Hodgson, Tim Reynolds, Kate Macfarlane, Chistopher Roache and the ARC DECRA The Sounds of Time to explore the mysteries of time and how they unfold in the works of John Dowland and contemporaries in this research-led public performance event.
