SUMMARY:Acord: Big Foot Bertha and the Minstrel King
DESCRIPTION:Big-Foot Bertha & the Minstrel King\n\nPart of a series of Sunday morning concerts of medieval music\, readings and images\, this Sunday concert centres on Big Foot Bertha\, the mother of Charlemagne\, and it is still a mystery as to why she acquired this unusual sobriquet. Also in the story is the King of the Minstrels\, Adenet le Roi who wrote a fanciful story of B F Bertha.\nAdenet le Roi was no ordinary minstrel. His epic poems\, including Berte aus Grans Piés\, Les Enfances Ogier and Cleomadès\, abound in colourful details\, and he engaged with a web of trouvères\, minstrels and patrons in Flanders and from France and England.\n\n“When the words come\, they are merely empty shells without the music. They live as they are sung\, for the words are the body and the music the spirit.” Hildegard von Bingen \n\nMargaret Arnold : alto\, organetto\nRichard Excell : vielles\, rebec\, psaltery\, gemshorn\nJerzy Kozlowski : bass\nSue Tweg : reader\, alto\nCarol Williams : harp\, vielle\, rebec\, voice\n\n\n\nKathleen Syme Library\, 251 Faraday St\, Carlton\n\n\nSundays November 11\, 11 am – 12 noon\nTickets: $20 & $10 (at door)\nEnquiries: +61 425 702 700

SUMMARY:Acord: Hrotsvit and Hildegard
DESCRIPTION:This concert weaves together creative works by two remarkable self-proclaimed ‘strong voices’. In the C10th Hrotsvit (c.935-c.1000) played on her own Saxon name\, describing herself as ‘Clamor Validus Gandesheimensis’. In the C12th\, Abbess Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) wrote that her mission was to proclaim sacred truths with her ‘trumpet voice’. Although they never met or knew of each other\, these women from aristocratic backgrounds had the good fortune to live in places and at a time when early Christianity had become established in Saxony and the Rhineland under the Benedictine rule\, supported by cultural enrichment through Greek and Latin texts flooding into scriptoria via Constantinople. Both women took advantage of the opportunities that presented themselves for scholarship and spiritual creativity in a cloistered life: Hrotsvit took limited vows and enjoyed relative comfort as a secular canoness\, while Hildegard was committed by her parents as a child\nto a full monastic life\, in which she achieved high status as a political and spiritual leader. \nAlthough that all sounds rather sober\, Hrotsvit had a quite spicy sense of humour as you will discover. \nSunday September 17\, 11am \nKathleen Syme Library and Community Centre\, 251 Faraday Street\, Carlton \nTICKETS: S20 (Concession $15)  at door. \n

SUMMARY:Acord: The Chastelain de Couci
DESCRIPTION:The Chastelain de Couci has been celebrated as a singer of songs of love and crusades ever since his own time. His true identity has been a source of confusion for much of that time\, too\, largely because of a fanciful romance concocted about him a century after his life by a certain Jakemes. While this tale is entertaining in a gruesome way (it featured in an Acord concert many years ago)\, the glimpses we have of his actual life are just as interesting and at times poignant. \nCome and celebrate the life and work of this amazing creative artist as presented by Acord with song\, stories and wonderful images. There’ll be refreshments after and lots of chat. \nTickets at the door: $20/$10

SUMMARY:Acord - Medieval Performance Ensemble: The Holy Face
DESCRIPTION:In this concert we explore facets of the world of acheiropoieta: literally “not hand made”\, but more specifically miraculous images of Christ’s face not created by human hands. There have been many claimants to such status\, but in medieval western Europe\, just two attracted the major share of veneration\, pilgrimage\, imitation and prayer: the Veronica in Rome and the Volto Santo di Lucca. Tickets at the door $20 / $10 and there will be appropriate refreshments after.
