The vocal ensemble BLUE HERON combines a commitment to vivid live performance with
research into original source materials and historical performance practice. Blue Heron’s prin-
cipal repertoire interests in the last few years have been late fifteenth-century Franco-Flemish
polyphony, sacred and secular Spanish music between about 1500 and 1575, and neglected
early sixteenth-century English music, especially the rich and unexplored repertory of the
Peterhouse partbooks (c. 1540); this program reflects the ensemble’s increasing involvement
with earlier fifteenth-century repertoire. Founded in 1999, Blue Heron presents its own series
of concerts in Cambridge, Massachusetts, performs regularly at Monadnock Music in New
Hampshire, and has appeared at other venues throughout the Northeast.
