What do you learn or gain by participating in this ensemble?

I'm learning a lot about early music performance that I didn't know before or wasn't informed enough to process the last time I was in a group of this kind. It also complements my work as a medievalist in another discipline--e.g. I've known about Hildegard von Bingen for decades but had never learned anything about her musical compositions. Above all, it keeps me involved in music and around musicians, which has always been important to me.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about your experience with this ensemble?

I so appreciate your openness to including interested faculty and staff in this ensemble! It means a lot to me to be able to participate. Thank you.

I had mostly played percussion in band before, so it's refreshing and exciting to play in a full orchestra. We play great music, and Ruth is a great conductor. I enjoy playing the pieces with everyone and adding my percussion element to the piece.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about your experience with this ensemble?

This is a great ensemble, and Ruth is such an amazing conductor, but sometimes she can be a little impatient and irritated. But this is a very minor thing, as we all have our own personalities.
