On April 5th at noon in the rotunda, the library will host a rendition of classical French songs played on Renaissance recorders. The musical group, Ensemble Fontegara, will play several French Renaissance dance movements as well as parts from Mellange de Chanson, a 1572-piece by LeRoy and Ballard.
Ensemble Fontegara is directed by Pat O’Scannell and includes the following performers: Stephen Bacon (bass), Karen Basin (alto), Luna Bitzer (alto/soprano), Tessa Brinkman (tenor), Pat O’Scannell (soprano/alto), and Kevin Woven (tenor).
This hour-long performance is part of Hannon’s Music in the Library series. It is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Dale Vidmar at vidmar@sou.edu.
