The music of Elizabethan and Jacobean England is closely associated with the madrigal and lute. Though starting as an imitation of the older Italian tradition, the English Composers, especially Thomas Morley, Thomas Weelkes, and John Dowland, transformed this into a delightful English style with music which is still popular today.  Mountainside’s favorite singers will be joined by the “great, young, virtuoso” lute player, Arash Noori. Madrigal, ballets, lute duets and songs will be presented in an ear-pleasing afternoon.
