Description

Sine Nomine is opening its 2020-2021 concert season with a virtual performance of English Renaissance music composed for small spaces and intimate settings. Singers have met over five weeks to learn about the music, history, and culture surrounding the recusant world of William Byrd. Our concert premiere will feature parts of Byrd's 'Mass for Four Voices' as well as music by Morley, Tallis, Wilbye, and others. You will hear pre-recorded performances by our singers, view some singer testimonials, and even have the opportunity to sing-along yourself! There will be introductory comments by director Anne Lyman and an ongoing chat conversation during the concert.

Access our concert invitation by Director Anne Lyman, and subscribe/ bookmark our Sine Nomine YouTube channel Home page, which is where the concert link will appear a few days before Nov 15th: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBUxcOS3Ju8vCX1db3kcccg
