Joanna Blendulf directs the vocalists and instrumentalists of Concentus in a program exploring the differences in musical styles between the publications of houses Attaingnant and Petrucci. The concert highlights the vocal and instrumental colors through much smaller ensembles than in the Medieval concert.
