The Dallas Pro Musica vocal group will perform at 8 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 19, at The University of Texas at Dallas Jonsson Performance Hall.

The Dallas Pro Musica is dedicated to the re-creation and realization of vocal music from the Medieval, Renaissance and Early Baroque periods, with occasional forays into the 20th and 21st centuries. The ensemble, based at UT Dallas, consists of faculty members Kathryn Evans, soprano, Mary Medrick, mezzo-soprano, and Hoyt Neal, tenor, with Michael Borts, bass. UT Dallas student graduate Rebecca Mitchell, alto, will appear as a guest artist.

The evening’s program will include selections from their two programs: “The Italian Way,” based on the secular vocal works of the Italian Renaissance, and “Basically British,” works from the masters of the English madrigal. The featured works are by such noted Italian composers as Luca Marenzio, Carlo Gesualdo da Venosa, Magister Piero, Francesco Landini, Pomponio Nenna and Giovanni Domenico Da Nola, Claudio Monteverdi; and English composers Thomas Morley, Henry Purcell, John Wilbye, Thomas Vautor, and John Bennet; and the infamous P.D.Q. Bach.

More information about the concert is available.

dallastenor had some negative things to say about Kathryn Evans, but without context, they seemed too random and arbitrary to let stand.
