Les Amours de Mai

Description

Our spring concert features French Renaissance songs and dances marked by grace, balance and a wonderful sense of lightness, especially the song settings of poetry of Pierre de Ronsard by such composers as Claude le Jeune, Guillaume Costeley, Claude Goudimel, Eustache du Caurroy and others.

Parthenia, performing on a consort of viols in the style of those used in the 16th century, is joined by soprano Sherezade Panthaki and Renaissance lutenist Christopher Morrongiello.
