Our musical gift for this cycle anticipates what’s to come as Mother Earth gradually reawakens. Our friend and collaborator Nigel North plays Nicholas Vallet’s 1613 setting for lute of the English ballad tune, “All In a Garden Green.” We offer the performance with cheer and good hope!
And we remind you that Nigel North, with our own Anne Azéma, will be giving a special, online duo recital of Renaissance lute songs and instrumentals, streaming May 15-31.
The music will be special, and the venue as well. To help us celebrate spring, our friends at Historic New England have opened the doors of the beautiful Lyman Estate in Waltham, MA for this event. The Estate’s grand, yet intimate, ballroom offers a visually and sonically rewarding space for chamber music. It’s a perfect setting for the lute song repertoire as transmitted via the uniquely gifted Azéma-North duo, filmed by Dave Jamrog. Please join us!
