Trumpet fanfares will herald the arrival and procession of the singers as well as of the traditional wassail bowl and the serving of the three-course prime-rib dinner. Madrigal singing was brought to England from Italy in the 10th century and was. at first, an informal entertainment at the castles and country homes of the landed gentry. During the twelve days of the Christmas season, there was much entertaining and singing of madrigals. The Madrigal Singers of Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music began in 1906 as a separate choral group devoted to the performance of madrigal and chamber literature. The group consists of costumed singers, four instrumentalists, and three trumpets. Following their initial procession they will sing and dance during the dinner and will present an after-dinner concert prior to the serving of the traditional flaming plum pudding. The evening will close with group carol singing. Tickets for the evening which includes dinner and entertainment in the Renaissance tradition are $13.00 per person and are available at the Shenandoah Box Office. 17031 607-3898.
