Sometimes, art imitates life! In this lively program, Convivium Musicum will be exploring the many ways in which Renaissance composers used the concept of word-painting to describe anything and everything, including frolicking animals, ringing bells, sounds of battle, celestial instruments, deep darkness, sunny hills, and more. Included on the program will be "Das Glaut zu Speyer" by Senfl and "Or soit loué l’Eternel" by Sweelinck. And of course our featured composer will be the most famous word-painter of the period, Clément Janequin. Don't miss this whimsical concordance!
