A series of lectures concerned with the place of musical sound and art in medieval imagination and experience: its relation to patterns of fear, delight and awe. The setting for the lectures will be one of the few medieval churches of London to survive the Great Fire of 1666: St Sepulchre-without-Newgate, Holborn.
