every move and listen to every phrase as if participants in the

MDD at Holme Pierrepont Hall, Nottingham, December 2006sica
Donum Dei is based in Nottinghamshire, but performs throughout
the Midlands and over an increasingly wide area beyond.
We
perform music from Monteverdi to Mozart, and are known for our
unusual and accessible programmes. We often use
readings, dramatisations and visual images alongside the music
to evoke the spirit of the age in lively and imaginative ways.
Members
of the ensemble are involved in historical research to revive
neglected works, and we are also active in commissioning new
ones; we held our first composers’
competition in
Spring 2006.
