A l' l madrigal dinner For the past eight years, the Chamber Singers have presented the Olde-English Madrigal Dinner. This year was no exception. With what has become a Graceland Christmas tradition, the Chamber Singers and Director Rick Porter gave those in attendance a real taste of Christmas merriment from 16th century England. With the commons transformed Info a 16th Century banquet hall and the singers dressed as lords, ladies and minstrels of the time, guests feasted on Cornish Game Hens roasted in honey and grapes. The lords, ladies and minstrels provided the entertainment. They performed aselection of madrigals, carols and modern Christmas music in addition fo a short play. Madrigals were wrltten for several separate voice parts, skillfully woven together to form a pleasing whole. 1 5 SQUGSTTBCI Y LOTCIS, ladles Gnd l'T1inSfI'elS o d 16th Century merriment ww M Jestlng with President Higdon EDYSTIDQ the DGDQUGT hull madrigal dinner f '13 i wwf- -- -sv
