Item Description
This gift certificate entitles you to two (2) tickets to the Folger's Consort's performance of City of Ladies.
The French and Burgundian courts of the early 15th century fostered a culture that treasured its musicians, artists, and writers and the revelatory idea of beauty for its own sake. Influential writer Christine de Pizan lived at court in France and wrote The Book of the City of Ladies during this time. One of her ballades, Dueil angoisseus, was set to music by Giles Binchois. This chanson and exquisite and haunting works by Guillaume Du Fay and others for court and chamber are performed by vocalists, fiddles, harps, lutes, and winds. City of Ladies is presented in conjunction with Folger’s celebration of 1,000 years of women writers.
Item Special Note
This certificate is good for April 14-15, 2012, Saturday at 5:00 and 8:00pm, and Sunday at 2:00pm.
