The ensemble will perform a selection of favorites from the middle ages alongside rarely or never before heard musical gems, as well as premiere performances of compositions with Medieval texts by modern Medievalism composer, David Yardley.

Concordian Dawn: ”le Roman De Fauvel”

Ann E. Pitzer Center

This Christmas concert transports the listener back to the Middle Ages, highlighting some of the most beautiful and rarely heard repertoire from the medieval holiday season. With the earliest surviving polyphonic mass compilation, Missa Tournai, as the concert’s centerpiece, Concordian Dawn offers a true holiday commemoration through medieval liturgy and carols.

“Almost everything we might wish to know about the sound of medieval music is lost to us,” warns Daniel Leech-Wilkinson. Through the double medium of discursive speculation and live performance, Sarah Kay and Concordian Dawn set out in this lecture-performance not to know medieval song – we agree that is not possible – but to relive some of its affective realities, which we locate not in the objective worlds of time, place, or historical circumstance, but in dynamic interactions between body and world inflected by imagination. The sounds of this song are conjured not just by birds and fountains, but by celestial beasts and alluring sirens. Some of these sung texts represent the singing subject captivated by beauty, others struggling between life and death, others at the limits of a dream world, or ecstatic with joy.
