experimental Music/Performance/Video Library After Hours Presents the Consort of All Sorts
Multi-Artist West Coast Tour at KALA ASToRiA PuBLiC Library and the Astor Library
Friends Association present Library After Hours, a
free series of musical performances, author visits,
and community conversations that take place at
the library at 450 10th Street, Astoria. These events
are scheduled after the regular hours of operation,
and the next event will happen on December 19 at
6pm.
December 19, at 6pm After Hours will feature
Astoria’s own early music ensemble, the Consort of
All Sorts, playing instrumental and vocal music from
the 17th and 18th centuries with themes appropri-
ate for the winter holiday season. The centerpiece
of the performance will be a delightful suite of no-
els composed by Michel Richard de Lalande in 17th
century France, originally performed in churches to
accompany sermons and readings from the Bible.
Also on the program will be several unusual carols
sung by baritone Drew Herzig accompanied by
the Consort. And, true to the group’s name, the
Consort of All Sorts will combine these pieces with
selected movements from trio sonatas from the Ba-
