Bleecker Consort: Winter Revels - Medieval and Renaissance Music for the Winter Season
Sainte Nicolas was an actual person who lived in the 3rd/4th century. Bleecker Consort will honor Nicolas with the charming 12th century (1150 A.D.) composition attributed to the medieval Saint Godric. Other selections will include winter and holiday-themed music from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, many of which remain familiar to this day. Our musicians perform on reproductions of early instruments including strings (viola da gamba, dulcimer, harp, and hurdy-gurdy), woodwinds (recorders, dulcian, flute, crumhorns, cornamuse, etc.), percussion, and vocals. An educational program will occur at 11:00 am to introduce the consort, our instruments, the program, and a demonstration of a Baroque trio.
