New Orleans Musica da Camera
www.nomdc.org
New Orleans Musica da Camera is the oldest surviving early music organization
in the country, founded in 1966 by director Milton G. Scheuermann,
Jr. Researching and performing the music of the 10th through 16th
centuries, the group is dedicated to making that music current and
living for the listeners of the 21st century. Using historically informed
performance techniques and reproductions of period instruments (many
built by Scheuermann), they also use their own musical transcriptions
from original manuscript sources. The ensemble performs in the culturally
diverse neighborhoods in and around the Crescent City and throughout
the Gulf South, presenting a variety of performances, lectures and
workshops. Vox Feminæ, the women's vocal ensemble of Musica
da Camera, was founded in 1994 by St. Julien. This ensemble focuses
on medieval songs and chant, with a special interest in music by or
about women.
