VdGS/GNY Lecture - Beyond "Early Music": Expanding the Viol Consort Repertoire

Whether student, amateur or professional, every viol player enjoys playing consort music. The Renaissance and Baroque offer an unparalleled wealth of repertoire. However, what if we were to push the boundaries and explore new repertoire?

In this lecture, Thibault Back de Surany will explore the fascinating relationship between Romantic composers, and Johannes Brahms in particular, with consort music, and how their choral music can work for viol consort.

He will also share his experience with “new music” and explain how consort music can remain a fascinating source of inspiration for living composers.

This free lecture will be presented through Zoom. You will receive a link for viewing this lecture from the VDGS/GNY email in advance of this event.

You must be a member in good standing to attend.
