"Into a most delicate and pleasant garden they came, led by the king, who there, with true curiosities, had crowned himself in making that place the crown of all pleasure, yet, was not sufficient, but yet must be inly adorned with other sorts, as music. Music there was of all sorts, yet the king thought that the best was not yet, wherefore he told the emperor that voices, he thought, did excel all these kinds of music.”
- Thus wrote Mary Wroth in The Countess of Montgomery’s Urania. We agree with the king that music, and vocal music in particular, is the crowning pleasure. Join us at the Heliconian Hall for this most intimate repertoire of song.
