The Orlando Consort, a male vocal quartet, has a range of repertory that is unusually wide among early music groups, running from Guillaume de Machaut through contemporary concert music and jazz. The Orlando Consort was formed in 1988 as a one-off touring group, but it was immediately successful and decided to remain intact for further performances. As of 2023, the group's members were counter-tenor Matthew Venner, tenors Angus Smith and Mark Dobell, and baritone Donald Greig. It is among the few early music groups to have attempted the interpretively difficult music of Machaut in an unprecedented complete recording of the composer's surviving works. The Florentine Renaissance appeared in 2022, and another Machaut volume, Remede de Fortune, was issued in 2023. That year, the group announced its retirement, with a long farewell tour concluding in June with a concert in Boston.
Zu den Mitgliedern von The Orlando Consort gehören oder gehörten Charles Daniels, Robert Harre-Jones, Angus Smith, Matthew Venner und Donald Greig.
