CONTINUUM: If Love Now Reigned

Milton has been the co-host (with Thais St. Julien) of Continuum since 1976. Continuum is an hour long program of all kinds of early music recorded by groups around the world. Milton, an architect by trade, harbors a life long passion for vocal and instrumental music of the 10th though 17th centuries. He co-directs a professional early music ensemble, Musica da Camera where many of the over 100 instruments played were constructed from original manuscript drawings. Additionally, Milton has a passion for the music of Richard Wagner and for magic as a performing art.

Thaïs St. Julien co-hosts WWNO’s weekly program of early music, Continuum. A New Orleans native, Thais is co-director (with founder Milton Scheuermann) of Musica da Camera, performing music of the 11th through 19th centuries. She created and directs the group’s women’s vocal ensemble, Vox Feminae, sometimes writing and arranging music for them. Twelve Musica da Camera productions featuring the Thais as soloist have been broadcast on National Public Radio, American Public Radio and Public Radio International. She was featured on the internationally acclaimed series Creole Cameos produced by WWNO, and Arc Light, a video series produced by Amistad Research Center. The soprano has recorded for the Newport Classics, Centaur, Belle Alliance and Clark Constructions record labels. Thais is also a magician and an active member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, the Society of American Magicians, the Knights of Slights and Mensa.
