The Boulder Renaissance Consort is presenting “Courting the Renaissance” with Humanities faculty member, Shirley Carnahan. Also appearing are John Bullock, Melody English, Anne Fjestad Peterson, Josh McGirk and Linda Sherman.

Courting the Renaissance is a performance of lively and entertaining Renaissance music from Elizabethan and European courts. The six performers sing madrigals, play crumhorns, harp, percussion and many different sizes of wooden recorders.  But don’t take them too seriously, for they like to toss in a  PDQ Bach or Beatles tune here and there.

There are two performances:

Saturday August 1, 7:30 p.m.
YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, CO
Hempel Family Program Building
Free Admission

Saturday August 8, 7:30 p.m.
Atonement Lutheran Church
685 Inca Parkway (Baseline at Inca), Boulder
Tickets at the door: $15  Students/seniors: $12
