Amyntas with His Phyllis Fair
Theodore Jander
About this work: This contemporary madrigal speaks for itself.
Amyntas with His Phyllis Fair is a mix of Renaissance and 21st-Century styles. The music is set to the text written by Thomas Pilkington, a Renaissance composer. The
Greenleaf Singers (a St. Louis-based Early Music Vocal Ensemble) performed the premiere during the 2004 Eliot Chapel Madrigal Dinners. This piece is light and rhythmically challenging.
