The Rose, the Lily, and the Whortleberry features the four voices of the Orlando Consort. A musical bouquet for spring, the program features a veritable garden of music centered on flowers, plants, and horticulture. Throughout history, the symbolic and allegorical allure of plants and flowers has been irresistible to composers who have delighted in the overt beauty and secret codes they convey. This program features European composers from the 13th-16th centuries who used floral imagery to illustrate both earthly and heavenly love.
