Named for the captivating last line of Alfonso d’Avalos’s poem Ancor che col partire, the Newberry Consort presents a romantic concert of Italian madrigals and French chansons. A five-part vocal consort is complimented by exquisite music for lute, harp, and recorder. Enjoy a wonderfully intimate evening of poetry and music by Pierre Sandrin, Cipriano de Rore, Giovanni Bassano, Philippe Verdelot, Adrian Willaert, and other Renaissance favorites.
