Folger Consort Performs Holiday Concerts
Dec 06, 2024 - Dec 15, 2024. Times Vary
A beloved DC tradition each year, Folger Consort performs their annual holiday concerts performing festive early music pieces for the season! Composed in 1694, Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s “Messe de Minuit pour Noel” is based on captivating, folksong-like noels steeped in the composer’s characteristic balance of irresistible dance rhythms and sophisticated harmonies. The Consort will complement Charpentier’s Mass with haunting English “Balulalows” for voices set amid joyful instrumental concertos by Italian baroque masters.
