7:30 pm - Susanna Unbound:

Breaking the Rules in the 16th and 17th Centuries

The instrumental ensembles of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries were called in England 'consorts', a misspelling of 'concert' which, like 'concerto', probably comes from the Latin verb conserere meaning 'to combine together.' Viol players Erica Rubis, Margaret Humphrey, Maryne Mossey, Rebecca Humphrey, and Julie Elhard will delight us again this year with the mesmerizing sounds of the viol consort with 'Susanna' settings and other music by composers who redefined the musical boundaries.
