artist photo The New York Consort of Viols, originally part of New York Pro Musica, was incorporated in 1972 under the artistic dirction of Judith Davidoff.

The groups' purpose is to bring to life the enormous repertoire of music for viols and viol consort written during the Renaissance and Baroque eras. The Consort has also commissioned new works which exploit the resources of viols in contemporary idioms.
