The Orlando Consort has made an international reputation in the field of medieval and renaissance vocal music and, through the its imaginative programming, also embraces jazz, film and world music. The consort tours regularly throughout the U.K., Europe and U.S. (including BBC Proms, Carnegie Hall, Edinburgh and Lucerne festivals) and has recorded for Deutsche Grammophon and Harmonia Mundi USA (including two Gramophone Awards). For their program "The Ambassadors," the four singers of Orlando Consort combine Renaissance music from the courts of Europe with readings of excerpts from the journals and letters of diplomats of the era -- resulting in a colorful evening of song and thought that brings to life one of the most fascinating periods in European history. Pre-concert talk: 7pm.
