Gut, Wind, and Wire, a trio formed by longtime Baltimore Consort members Mark Cudek, Ronn McFarlane and Mindy Rosenfeld join Midday for a performance. The band is named for the elements that bring their instruments to life: gut strings, wire strings and the musicians' breath.

Their performances explore a wide variety of music from the 16th and 17th centuries, music from folk traditions and original music through maple, boxwood, spruce, rosewood, blackwood, tulipwood, strings of sheep gut and more.
