DESCRIPTION:My Heart is Filled with Longing: German Cantatas and Sinfonias for Holy Week\NWorks by Erlebach, Rosenmüller, J. Christoph Bach, Schmelzer, J. Fischer\NARTEK will play 17th century sacred music appropriate for the solemn time of Holy Week. Featured singer is countertenor Ryland Angel, accompanied by string ensemble. The music includes cantatas by Philipp Heinrich Erlebach, Kapellmeister in Thuringia, whose massive output of operas, cantatas, chamber music and more was largely destroyed by fire after his death; and Johann Christoph Bach, the first cousin once removed of J. S. Bach and the most noted member of the Bach family before Johann Sebastian’s success. The final piece on the program is an instrumental version of the famous Passion hymn, Herzlich Thut mich verlangen (My heart is filled with longing) by Johann Fischer, a rarely-heard composer whose musical career took him to positions in no less than nine different locations, including Paris at an early age where he was a scribe for Jean-Baptiste Lully; and to Lüneburg briefly in 1700, at a time when J. S. Bach was also in Lüneburg.Gwendolyn Toth ~ organ & directorRyland Angel ~ countertenorTheresa Salomon ~ violinChiara Fasani Stauffer, violinPeter Kupfer ~ violaDan McCarthy ~ violaArnie Tanimoto ~ celloMotomi Igarashi ~ violoneAdam Cockerham ~ theorbo\N\N\NMore info\N1:15 – 2:00 pmAll concerts are free; no tickets or reservations are necessary.\NIn person at The Church of the Transfiguration, 1 E 29th St, New York City\NConcerts will also be live streamed.

Works by Erlebach, Rosenmüller, J. Christoph Bach, Schmelzer, J. Fischer
ARTEK will play 17th century sacred music appropriate for the solemn time of Holy Week. Featured singer is countertenor Ryland Angel, accompanied by string ensemble. The music includes cantatas by Philipp Heinrich Erlebach, Kapellmeister in Thuringia, whose massive output of operas, cantatas, chamber music and more was largely destroyed by fire after his death; and Johann Christoph Bach, the first cousin once removed of J. S. Bach and the most noted member of the Bach family before Johann Sebastian’s success. The final piece on the program is an instrumental version of the famous Passion hymn, Herzlich Thut mich verlangen (My heart is filled with longing) by Johann Fischer, a rarely-heard composer whose musical career took him to positions in no less than nine different locations, including Paris at an early age where he was a scribe for Jean-Baptiste Lully; and to Lüneburg briefly in 1700, at a time when J. S. Bach was also in Lüneburg.

DESCRIPTION:\NThe Garden of Love in Miniature\NPeriod works on an intimate scale suggesting fantasy characters inhabiting the Garden of Love. The dances in this performance are inspired by the themes in miniature and nature seen frequently in Baroque art. For the Baroque noble, the latter offered opportunities to be in nature, to show off and be seen, be with a lover, and commune with one’s private thoughts. The fantasy characters draw upon romanticized images of the unicorn tapestries from the collection of the Met Museum, circa 1500, and the idyllic pastoral scenes painted by François Boucher, 1703–1730, as well as the Baroque dance notations: Bourrée de Achilles, Bourrée de Percée, Sarabande pour Femme, Gigue pour Homme, Le Passapied, circa 1701.

Lanier’s expressive and expansive scena Hero’s Lament to Leander breaks the strictures of small form lute songs, channeling its heroine’s complex emotional shifting sands through the recitative style typical of the compositional and rhetorical frames imposed by contemporary Italian composers and pairs exquisitely with Rossi’s Lament di Zaida moro. The recitative lament as a genre is flanked by more restrictive, yet equally soul-baring musical forms, including Claudio Monteverdi’s Voglio di vita uscir — a curiously upbeat lament set over the ciaccona ground base, offering a shining beam of possibility and light in an otherwise dark world.\N\N\N\NMore info\N1:15 – 2:00 pmAll concerts are free; no tickets or reservations are necessary.\NIn person at St. Malachy's Church, 239 West 49th Street, Manhattan\NConcerts will also be live streamed.

DESCRIPTION:\NL’Arte di Suonare\N\NClèa Galhano ~ recorderJoseph Jones ~ dulcianDonald Livingston ~ harpsichordEarly 17th century sonatas (literally "the sounding of instruments") were integral to the flowering of the Baroque aesthetic. A new instrumental style emerged called Stylus Fantasticus, featuring spirited rhetorical dialogues of tempos, affects, timbres, and textures; wild contrasts of audio juxtaposed.

DESCRIPTION:\N\NA Delightful Diversion\N\NJoseph Lorang ~ violinTsutomu William Copeland ~ viola Clara Abel ~ violoncello \NMozart's Divertimento in Eb Major, K. 563 is the only full-length string trio he ever composed. And full-length it certainly is — six movements long and clocking in at around 45 minutes — making it the second longest chamber work Mozart ever wrote, and a giant among string trios composed to this day. “Divertimento” is a genre typically associated with lighthearted, rather informal compositions meant purely for entertainment, and K. 563 stretches that definition in both its scope and profundity. This piece was composed in 1787−1788, a period during which Mozart was facing financial struggles. After repeated, increasingly desperate appeals to his friend Michael Puchberg, a textile merchant, to help him out by sending him money, Puchberg responded by giving Mozart a sizable loan. It is believed that Mozart wrote this piece in dedication to Puchberg in return for this gesture.
