Description

Join Sine Nomine for our final program of the season, ‘Drink and Be Merry!’ We invite you to join us in Trinity’s cozy Parish Hall as we explore the lighter side of Renaissance music, with madrigals, drinking songs, rounds, and even a sea chanty - featuring Janequin's curiously expressive Le chant des oyseaux (Song of the birds), and Monteverdi’s deliciously dramatic Si ch’io vorrei morire! (Yes, I would like to die!), and so much more. Enjoy a light reception throughout the concert and clink your glass as we celebrate food, wine, loss, and love.

Free parking available in the Skyline Garage (in spots designated for Trinity).
