Dulcinea Early Music Consort was formed in St. Augustine in 2012.  The name “Dulcinea” was Don Quixote’s fantasy damsel.  Dulcinea performs music from the Medieval and Renaissance through the Baroque and Modern eras, in period dress, on replicas of a wide variety of recorders and other early musical instruments.

The program will include several dances from Playford’s Dancing Master – the dances of the educated society as well as Wild Mountain Thyme and songs by Thomas Morley.

Dulcinea seeks to enrich cultural life through exciting historically informed live performances and educational programs designed to inspire a new appreciation of early music and enable and support the study of early music and instruments.

The members of Dulcinea are Mary Jane Ballou, Carol Markey, Betsey McCoy, Suzette Morasca, Amy Steinbach, and Robbie Zukauskas.
