This chapel some of the best acoustics around for this type of music.
If you can get to Durham for this concert it would be well worth the
effort. If you aren't familiar with Duke Chapel, it's gothic and built
fashioned on the gothis cathedrals of Europe. It's like stepping back
in time.

This is a period piece with lots and lots of conversation, BUT, the
writer captured the feelings of the English Royal family for each
other. This is the ultimate dysfunctional family,
King Henry II kept his queen, Eleanor of Aquitain, locked away for
years only letting her out for the "family" Christmas celebration. And
he wondered why she continually plotted against him. 
If 12th century politics isn't your thing, you might be better of
skipping this one. But if you  enjoy politics and intrigue, don't miss
it. It makes Washington in recent weeks look like kindergarten.
