The Baltimore Consort
Bright Day Star: Music for the Yuletide Season

Founded in 1980 to perform the instrumental music of Shakespeare’s time, the Baltimore Consort has since expanded to include English, Scottish, and French popular music from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. Drawing its title from the Scottish poet William Dunbar’s Advent poem Rorate coeli desuper, this program features Christmas music from England, Scotland, France, and Spain, finding its theme in carols and dance tunes through the centuries. Countertenor José Lemos and soprano Danielle Svonavec will join the Consort for these performances.

* This concert is presented in The Fuentidueña Chapel at The Cloisters. All seats are unreserved.
