Recorders, Dulcian, cornamuse, shawm, scheitholt, doumbek….These are some of the instruments that will bring the great acoustics of the historic 1848 Meeting House to life during a performance by the Bleecker Consort. The Albany-based group is an early music consort formed in 1988 which specializes in medieval and renaissance music.
The variety of instruments played add to the range of musical selections from the Medieval times to the 15th century. While you may have heard renaissance music through madrigals, the exoticism of medieval music is a delight to the ear.
