Classical Zeitgeist: Mozart and Haydn go traveling

The two greatest composers of the late 18th century had mutual admiration for one another and found their greatest success while traveling, making them pioneers of music freelancing. Haydn's London Trios were written during his second trip to England where he was received as a veritable superstar, while Mozart's radical Oboe Quartet was tailor-made in Munich for his friend, the oboe virtuoso Ramm.

The Big Bang
Rameau's Zais and Handel's Fireworks

The daring, impressionistic overture of Zaïs depicts the creation of the world, proceeding from chaos to order, while the dances that follow present the kaleidoscopic world of 18th century ballet music through the lens of Rameau’s colorful wit. Then sparks fly as House of Time takes you to Baroque London with its version of Handel's Fireworks Music. Handel's paean to peace is transformed into exciting and elegant chamber music in Gonzalo X. Ruiz's arrangement.

A Royal Affair

An Evening with Madame de Montespan, Louis XIV's favorite courtesan,
with actress Brooke Bloom

The magical elegant music of Lully and Marais forms the backdrop for a one-woman show. Acclaimed actress Brooke Bloom has an accomplished career in film, television and theatre with memorable turns on FX's "Atlanta", "Kindred", Amazon's series "Homecoming" and "Alpha House", and regular stints on HBO's "Gypsy". Ms. Bloom can be seen in the critically-acclaimed Jeremy Hersh indie The Surrogate (SXSW), Eric Steel's Minyan which premiered at Berlin Film Festival, Anja Marquardt's She's Lost Control (two Indie Spirit Award nominations), and Noah Baumbach's Marriage Story. With House of Time Ms. Bloom becomes the fascinating and enigmatic Athénais, Marquise de Montespan, whose memoirs offer intimate glimpses of Versailles behind the scene as well as a valuable historical record of Louis XIV's reign.
