Below is the Press Release for both Concerts. I'm posting for Lincoln but here are 2 opportunities to hear very rare choral music during this Holiday Season. We love this music and I hope many can come and appreciate its intricacy and beauty. -Matt

THERE IS A ROSE: A Capella Christmas Songs and Motets from the 15th & 16th Centuries. Amaryllis, Vermont's Early Voice Ensemble, will perform its annual holiday concert at two venues: at the United Church in Lincoln on Sunday December 9 at 2 p.m., and at St Stephen's Episcopal Church on the Green in Middlebury on Monday December 10 at 7:30 p.m. This 16-voice a cappella ensemble specializes in the music of the Renaissance and earlier and is directed by Susanne Peck. In the spirit of the season, Amaryllis will offer a Magnificat by Franco-Flemish composer Pierre de la Rue (1460-1518), motets by Byrd, Guerrero, Palestrina, to name a few, as well as Christmas carol favorites by Praetorius, Jacob Handl and others. Suggested donation $15 at the door. For more information, visit www.amaryllisvt.org or contact the director at Speck@middlebury.edu or 802-453-3513.
