The Arbor Consort is a non-profit vocal ensemble based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, dedicated to the historic performance and preservation of a cappella Renaissance music, as well as  Victorian winter holiday music.  We have been the featured madrigal singing group at the Michigan Renaissance Festival since 1982.  We also perform as costumed  carolers during the holiday season in Ann Arbor, and all over Southeast Michigan.  We serve as strolling musicians for festivals, private parties, holiday celebrations, and much more.  The Arbor Consort’s musical director is the amazing Sarah Jane Rau.

Available for Christmas and Winter Holiday Events

The Arbor Consort would love to perform at your holiday event!  We have performed at town Christmas Tree lightings, retirement communities, office Christmas parties, holiday shopping events, Christmas movie screenings, sporting events, and well as private events.  We perform a mix of traditional pre-20th century Christmas, Yule, and Channukah music a cappella in a variety of western languages! Latin, German, French, and Hebrew are all a part of our repertoire, though we mostly sing in English.
