Orlando Consort with IPC Choir
The Call of the Phoenix - English Voices, Old and New
Featuring United States Premiere of choral work Scattered Rhymes by British composer Tarik O'Regan
Formed in 1988 by the Early Music Centre of Great Britain, the Orlando Consort is established as one of Britain's most important chamber music ensembles, performing to the highest standards and renowned for its imaginative and innovative programming. Working with leading academics on music that has often never been performed in modern times, they have set new standards of performance, particularly with regard to the pronunciation and tuning of this fascinating repertoire. In recent times the Consort has also attracted praise for their highly imaginative programming of contemporary music that will be evident in this concert with juxtaposition of ancient and new.
