Young Artists Series
Friday, February 12, 2010 8:00 pm
Vox et Digitas – “It Was a Lover and His Lass”
Oberlin College graduates Nathan Medley and Mark Shuldner of Vox et Digitas break the stereotypes of “bore-oque music.” Their high-energy performances keep audiences on the edge of their seats and begging for more of their bold, zestful, and passionate interpretations. This program features Italian Baroque Cantatas and British Song by Purcell, Handel, and Blow.
Ars Lyrica
Friday, March 19, 2010 8:00 pm
Join us an intimate and earthy program of French Baroque chamber works, as Ars Lyrica debuts two stars of the international early music scene, violinist Marc Destrubé and mezzo-soprano Jennifer Lane. These two artists will be accompanied by a stellar period instrument ensemble: oboist Kathryn Montoya, gambist Barrett Sills, theorbist Michael Leopold, and harpsichordist Matthew Dirst. Works by Lully, Le Camus, Couperin, and Montéclair.
Mundi
Friday, April 30, 2010 8:00 pm
In concert and on their recordings, Mundi - a quintet from Austin - moves easily between the worlds of folk, classical and rock music. With violin, cello, bass, guitar and orchestral percussion, they create a sound that is rich, celebratory, and very much their own. They offer a mixture of European folk music, some of it from medieval times, and compositions by the group's founder, Darrel Mayers. They call it 'a modern harvest of ancient sounds.'
