Description:
Part of the William Byrd Festival
Pre-concert talk by guest scholar Dr. Kerry McCarthy, 6:45 p.m.
Donald Nally, Logan Henke, Tim Lambert, Victoria Marshall, and Jack Reeder, conductors; Charles Foster, virginal
The William Byrd Festival explores the composer’s secular side through a sampling of his gracefully plaintive, melancholy Songs of Sundrie Natures and Songs of Sadness and Pietie. The intimate sounds of the virginal evoke the turn of the 17th century— a time of sophisticated courtly chamber music, political intrigue, and musical evolution.
