A broken consort of castle musicians Who knew a mixed ensemble of Renaissance musicians were called a "broken consort"? Google, that's who! I thought they were troubadours or minstrels but my timeline was way off. Google just shook it's head at me and corrected me gently. Also I thought a "consort" was the spouse of a king or queen who had no royal power. But no! That's true politically but for music, it had a different meaning. Google said in Renaissance music, the word "consort" comes from the Latin "consortem" meaning "sharing a common fortune" or "partnership". A broken consort is because they play different instruments. If they all played instruments from the same family like viols, they would be a "whole consort". Learn something new everyday. 1. ImagineArt 1.5 2. GPT 2 Low 3. Recraft v4 4. Grok 5.
