Lauda Musicam celebrates Cinco de Mayo with Concordia vocal ensemble in this performance of music from Latin America during the time of Spanish colonization. The musical styles developed in relative isolation, creating sounds unique to the New World.
Lauda’s musicians showcase their impressive talents as well as the ensemble’s large inventory of early instruments in this concert featuring consorts of recorders, flutes, capped reeds, viols, and more. Renaissance instrumental music was most commonly performed in like-instrument groups, with an increased use of the “broken” (or mixed) consort as instrument-building methods evolved.
Time makes golden locks turn gray, morning turn to night, and winter turn to spring. Lauda Musicam of Atlanta looks to past composers to see how they pondered time. The concert is free, but donations are gratefully accepted.
Lauda Musicam collaborated with Atlanta Historic Dance in this concert of dance music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. With audience participation and a wide variety of music, it was a great example of how Lauda Musicam works to connect with our community.
