The New Milwaukee Consort travels to Dixon, IL as special guests of the Canterbury Concert Series. This short program will feature music from two manuscripts compiled near the shores of Lake Como in Northern Italy—one an early 17th-century collection of lute music and the other a late 17th-century collection of unique early cello works, including some beautiful arias with cello obbligato. Also on the program will be excursions to France and England with virtuosic viol works by Antoine Forqueray and Marin Marais, and an aria from Handel’s hit opera, Rinaldo.
