Center to host Baltimore Consort Christmas event

18 years ago

    Celebrating almost twenty years of programming, the Caribou Performing Arts Center, sponsored by the County Federal Credit Union, is proud to present the Baltimore Consort, one of America’s favorite early music ensembles. The Consort will perform at the Caribou Performing Arts Center on Monday, December 10 at 7 p.m. 
    Their program, entitled Noël Nouvelet, features carols and dance tunes spanning more than four centuries. Consisting of music from Spain, France, Germany, and Great Britain, the program includes a broad spectrum of Renaissance music, and such favorites as The Cherry Tree Carol, Il est né, le Divin Enfant, and Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day.
    The Baltimore Consort tours all regions of the United States and appears frequently in Europe. In addition, it has held several residencies at the Walters Art Gallery and the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore, as well as other prestigious institutions and festivals throughout the country. Performances on syndicated radio programs, including Performance Today, St. Paul Sunday, and Onstage (CBC), have broadcast the Consort’s music far and wide.
    Tickets for the Consort’s Noël Nouvelet are $15 for adults; $10 for all students and children. For ticket outlets and locations, call 493-4278.
