Tina Chancey, viol, vielle, rebec, kamenj; Barbara Allen Hill, soprano; Daniel Meyers, recorders, bagpipe, flutes, sackbutt, percussion; and Cameron Welke lute, perform a program spotlighting the largest surviving collection of instrumental pieces before 1450, the Faenza Codex. The concert will feature performances of ten of the original French, Italian and English original pieces, their ornamented Faenza versions, and the musicians' own improvisations in Faenza Codex-style. The Faenza Codex is a 15th-century musical manuscript containing some of the oldest preserved keyboard music along with additional vocal pieces.
