Early Music Lecture Series
During the time of the Covid Plague we embraced current technology to present internationally regarded Renaissance scholars in a series of online lectures for CRSP fans and early music enthusiasts to enjoy at home.
Cum jubilo: Singing in Women’s Communities in the Middle Ages.
In Fall 2021, CRSP soprano Marcia Jenneth Epstein talked with Katherine Hill, the Artistic Director of the world-renowned Toronto Consort. These lovely ladies discussed the fascinating topic of women singing the Middle Ages. This interview is split into 2 videos. Both videos are available on our YouTube channel.
This discussion touches upon medieval ideas about singing, women's lives in medieval cloisters and villages, medieval music notation, original music by Hildegard of Bingen and other female composers of the Middle Ages.
