01 L'amor, donna, ch'io te porto

L'amor, donna, ch'io te porto is from Early 16th Century Spain. This performance of the Nashville Early Music Ensemble was a selection from their final concert She Loves Me; She Loves Me Not which was performed at Lipscomb University's Ward Hall in Nashville on March 30, 2010. This concert was dedicated to the memory of Dr. Gerald Moore who founded the group and was a leading proponent of Early Music in Nashville for many years.

The Nashville Early Music Ensemble is designed to perform the vocal and instrumental music of the Medieval and Renaissance periods as well as folk music from several world cultures. The twenty-four member ensemble features musicians with diverse musical backgrounds but all with experience in early music. Instruments used by the ensemble include viols, lutes, guitars, ud, psaltery, harp, violin, recorders, sackbut, and a wide variety of percussion. The singers perform in original languages. The ensemble was conducted in this concert by Dr. Stephen Rhodes, a music professor and band director from Lipscomb University, who was a friend and colleague of Dr. Moore for many years.
