Nova! Nova!
with Piffaro, the Renaissance Band & New York Polyphony
Set aside your work on the cusp of Christmas and let the (mostly) Medieval music of an English Christmas, performed by “singers of superb musicianship and vocal allure” (The New Yorker) and Philadelphia’s “justly renowned Renaissance band” (Fanfare Magazine), transport you to a timeless place of reflection and joy.
“Audience and musicians were drawn together in a holiday mood both festive and reflective— a welcome, layered, and moving musical experience… filled with the inspiring joy in music-making that transcends the centuries.” –Broad Street Review
