Nota Bene

All the Colors in the Ayre

JAN. 15–17

Nota Bene Viol Consort is joined by guest vocalist Jason McStoots in an eclectic program celebrating the colors of the rainbow in music spanning five centuries. From Isaac and Byrd to Schoenberg and Holst, “All the Colors in the Ayre” explores the spectrum of colors that illuminate our world and have taken on a special meaning in a time when the rainbow has become a symbol of inclusion and celebration.

Making use of the many colors of the viol—from the rich dark tones of the bass to shimmering gold of the pardessus—the viol consort is joined by tenor Jason McStoots, whose expressive range takes us from the Renaissance to jazz and more.
