Since its founding in 1972, the New York Consort of Viols has championed the beauty and breadth of music written expressly for or especially suited to the viol. Acclaimed as a foremost ensemble for its dynamic Renaissance and Baroque repertoires, the Consort also performs medieval music on such instruments as the rebec and vielle. The group commissions contemporary works as well. The Consort has performed for enthusiastic audiences on campuses and in concert series throughout North America. Read more on Last.fm
