SUMMARY:Pacific Baroque Festival 2024 - Concert #4
DESCRIPTION:Entrance to the Alix Goolden Performance Hall is at 900 Johnson Street. The Balcony is closed for this event. \n\n\n\nSonate Concertate\n\nMarc Destrubé\, violin and artistic director\nKathryn Wiebe\, violin\nNatalie Mackie\, viola da gamba\nMarco Vitale\, harpsichord and organ \n\n​​The flourishing of instrumental music in 17th century northern Italy gave composers free reign to explore a conversational (‘concertate’) style of composition\, exploring the varied colours and interplay between string and wind instruments. The sackbut (early trombone) came into its own at this time\, most notably in the works of composers associated with St. Mark’s Cathedral in Venice such as Gabrieli and Castello\, who exploited its mellow timbre. At the same time the harp gained popularity as an accompanying bass instrument. We are thrilled to include two sackbuts and harp in the festival ensemble for this program. \n\n\n\n  \n\nConcert #1: Le Nuove Musiche 1: Naples and Rome – Frescobaldi to Scarlatti | February 27\, 7:30pm\, St. Barnabas Church *Not included in the Festival Pass \n\nConcert #2: Le Nuove Musiche 2: Venice and Milan – Monteverdi to Verdi | February 28\, 7:30pm\, Christ Church Cathedral \n\nConcert #3: Stile Moderno | February 29\, 11:00am\, Alix Goolden Performance Hall \n\nConcert #5: Songs of Love and War | March 2\, 7:30pm\, Alix Goolden Performance Hall \n\nChoral Evensong: Music Divine | March 3\, 4:00pm\, Christ Church Cathedral | Free Admission

SUMMARY:Pacific Baroque Festival 2024 - Concert #5
DESCRIPTION:Entrance to the Alix Goolden Performance Hall is at 900 Johnson Street. The Balcony is closed for this event. \n\n\n\nSongs of Love and War\n\nMarc Destrubé\, violin and artistic director\nKathryn Wiebe\, violin\nNatalie Mackie\, viola da gamba\nMarco Vitale\, harpsichord and organ \n\n​​This concert will feature selections from Claudio Monteverdi’s eighth book of “madrigals” (‘Madrigali guerrieri\, et amorosi’)\, published in Venice in 1638 when he was seventy-one years old. They represent a significant evolution in musical style\, in which Monteverdi sought to express a new emotion in music. Earlier composers had only conveyed two of man’s three major passions\, the soft and the moderate; a third passion\, agitation (‘stile concitato’)\, was missing in his view.  For this program\, the festival instrumental ensemble will be joined by a select group of emerging young singers\, specialized in this beautifully expressive music. \n\n\n\n  \n\nConcert #1: Le Nuove Musiche 1: Naples and Rome – Frescobaldi to Scarlatti | February 27\, 7:30pm\, St. Barnabas Church *Not included in the Festival Pass \n\nConcert #2: Le Nuove Musiche 2: Venice and Milan – Monteverdi to Verdi | February 28\, 7:30pm\, Christ Church Cathedral \n\nConcert #3: Stile Moderno | February 29\, 11:00am\, Alix Goolden Performance Hall \n\nConcert #4: Sonate Concertate | March 1\, 7:30pm\, Alix Goolden Performance Hall \n\nChoral Evensong: Music Divine | March 3\, 4:00pm\, Christ Church Cathedral | Free Admission
