A voyage from the elegance of English madrigals to the bold harmonies of colonial America. Works ranging from masterpieces of the English madrigal school to the “fuging tunes” of William Billings reveal love, longing, and joy in styles ranging from the courtly and refined to the spirited and free, bridging centuries and continents with timeless emotion.

Discover Carmina and Illuminare

Hailed by The Baltimore Sun for their “gorgeous tonal balance”, Carmina and Illuminare are sibling ensembles dedicated to bringing the exquisite beauty of early music to the Washington, D.C. community.
