This program takes you on a musical journey through the fascinating intercultural history of Spain in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The program begins in the mid-fifteenth century. Heroic ballads celebrating the battles between Christians and Moors, raunchy villancicos, wild improvisations and traditional Sephardic romances are performed by members of the Baltimore Consort. They play a variety of period instruments and are accompanied on vocals by the sensational Brazilian singer José Lemos.
