Madrigals for both instrumentalists and singers! The animal kingdom has always inspired composers to write wonderful music. Bird-pieces come first to mind, since birds are such incredible singers themselves, but how about baboons? Fleas? Oysters, anyone? Come and sing and play as we explore delightful renaissance madrigals devoted to the animal world. Music by Weelkes, Gibbons, Ravenscroft, LeJeune and more.
