Calendar of Events

The acclaimed London-based Fretwork presents a program of music for viol ensemble and lute by John Dowland, including his famous Lachrymae, in honor of the 450th anniversary of the birth of this eminent British composer.

La Follia performs the peerless music of Mozart and Haydn. Featured are Mozart’s Oboe Quartet and Flute Concerto in D major, and Haydn’s Harpsichord and Violin Concerto and Baryton trio 118. Stephen Redfield, Karen Clarke, James Brown, Billy Traylor, and Marcus McGuff guest star.

While it is common to hear music of Mozart and Haydn performed, it is rare to hear it performed with instruments like they used, and at the pitch that they used. For example, most of us do not think of Haydn writing for the harpsichord, much less writing a double concerto for harpsichord and violin. And yet, indeed he did, and splendid music it is too. Come hear these classics performed as the masters themselves heard them.

Madalyn Blanchett, recorder, Ramon Gonzalez, traverso, Brian DeLay, theorbo and baroque guitar, George Gregory, harpsichord, and Cora Harnish, baroque cello and viola da gamba, will perform selections by Quantz, Purcell, Corbett, and CPE Bach.

The music produced in Spain’s colonies in the New World was just as ornate, complex, and beautiful as anything found in the mother country, and this music is only recently being rediscovered. Join us as we explore the sacred music of Mexico, Bolivia, and Peru, including Ignacio de Jerúsalem’s rarely performed Matins for the Virgin of Guadalupe, music by Zipoli, Padilla, and more.
