Epilogues and Epitaphs

June 24, 25, & 26, 2019; 7:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

Most people wouldn’t equate “historically-informed Baroque chamber music” with “soul-blasting, face-melting hot sauce fire”... at least not until they hear Augusta McKay Lodge. She and her ensemble Voyage Sonique, plus singer Molly Netted, will perform a program of Baroque chamber works and arias, centering around musical monuments and remembrances by Rebel, Handel, Vivaldi, Corelli, Dowland, and more.

Program:

Jean-Fery Rebel: Tombeau de Lully

George Frederic Handel: Waft her angels through the skies, Jephtha

Arcangelo Corelli: Trio Sonata in D Major op. 3 no. 2

John Dowland: Now, o now, I needs most part

Antonio Vivaldi: La Folia

Henry Purcell: Evening Hymn
