NAVRS is excited to announce the continuation of Medieval Mondays taught by NAVRS music director Annette Bauer - thank you for your continued interest in medieval music!
The Medieval Mondays Spring Edition 2025 runs from February to May in four sessions. Each class will focus on a particular medieval topic, composer, or musical source. A brief overview of the historical context is followed by a selection of music to discover and play together.
Scores will be available for registered participants a week ahead of each class. Play-along files will be created on recorders.
Each zoom meeting will be recorded and will stay available to view on demand until one full month after the final class of the series.
Medieval Mondays will take place on zoom on the following dates, always from 12:30-2:00 pm Eastern:
Feb 10: Llibre Vermell - a 14th century collection of pilgrim songs from the “red book” of Montserrat
March 24: Estampie & Istanpitta - discovering a medieval dance form

May 5: Cantigas de Santa Maria - music and miracles from the Iberian peninsula, collected by Alfonso X “The Wise” (1221-1284)
Come join in on this musical time-travel on Mondays from 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm Eastern.
