The Canterbury Concert Series presents:
Renaissance and Baroque Chamber Music:
The New Milwaukee Consort
Sunday, February 26th @ 5:00pm -- St Luke's Episcopal Church, Dixon
Join us for an evening of Renaissance and Baroque chamber music as we welcome the New Milwaukee Consort to Dixon! Performing with lute, voice, and cello (and viola da gamba), the New Milwaukee Consort (Tim Sterner Miller, Kristin Knutson, and Charlie Rasmussen) is dedicated to the music of the European Renaissance and Baroque, crafting intimate performances around words and music whose stories resonate across the centuries. They particularly relish bringing lesser known sounds of the 17th century to modern audiences, from the work of women composers such as Barbara Strozzi to music from handwritten manuscripts documenting the early development of the cello and ongoing experimentation on the lute.
