Kansas University’s Vocal and Instrumental Collegium Musicum will present its fall concert at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 21 in Swarthout Recital Hall of Murphy Hall.

The concert will include a selection of music from the 16th through 18th centuries, sung by a small choir of the size likely to have been heard during the period and played on instruments that are copies of those in use during the period.

The Vocal Collegium Musicum, directed by doctoral student in choral conducting Heather Roberson, will sing Italian and English madrigals from the 16th and early 17th centuries by Cipriano de Rore, Luzzascho Luzzaschi, Thomas Morley, Orlando Gibbons and John Bennet, all important composers in this popular secular genre.

The Instrumental Collegium Musicum – which includes players of Baroque violin and cello, recorders, sackbut (an early trombone), and harpsichord – will feature works by Georg Philipp Telemann, Girolamo Frescobaldi, Samuel Scheidt, Carl Friedrich Weideman and others.

The free event is open to the public.
