The Lyric Consort
The Lyric Consort
"The Lyric Consort is a professional a cappella vocal ensemble based in Northeast Pennsylvania."
I attended The Lyric Consort concert at the First Presbyterian Church last night. I recommend going to see & hear them, because they are so good they'll make you cry. One song in particular brought tears to my eyes, it was so beautiful.
Times Leader | 05/16/2004 | Group marks 10 years of song
"You might think the group's main body of songs, sacred anthems and secular madrigals from the 16th century, doesn't fit your 21st-century tastes. But if you close your eyes and take in the unaccompanied sound of voices rising and falling and blending together you might come away singing a different tune, as did a visitor on a recent Saturday morning as the group's members sat rehearsing in a semi-circle in front of the main altar at the First Presbyterian Church in Wilkes-Barre. "There's nothing more beautiful than the sound of the human voice," says Steven Thomas, director of choral activities at Wilkes University, who joined the ensemble two years ago."
The 16th century is suited to my tastes, I think. But certainly I'm not a huge fan of religious music, in particular. However I don't think someone has to like either in order to appreciate the beauty of this musical performance.
