You’ll find yourself surrounded with Renaissance furniture, stained glass windows and architectural elements the Rosens collected and installed in this unique space. Only covered beverages are permitted inside during performances.

    Music, Faith, & Power in the Baroque WorldWed, Apr 7, 2027, 6:00PMloading...

    Overview

    The courts, churches, and noble households of seventeenth-century Europe were vibrant centers of artistic experimentation, where music served as both spiritual expression and political spectacle. Drawing on the repertoire performed by ACRONYM and countertenor Reginald Mobley, this lecture introduces participants to the rich musical world of the early Baroque. Through works by Monteverdi, Leonarda, Sances, Bertali, and others, we will examine how composers navigated the intersections of devotion, drama, and authority during a period of profound cultural transformation. Participants will also explore the rise of the countertenor voice, the emergence of new expressive styles, and the enduring influence of this remarkable era on Western musical culture.

    Featured Concert Repertoire to be Explored:
    Bertali: Sonata in A8 in A Minor
    Valentini: Hodie Christus Natus Est
    Isabella Leonarda: O dulce nomen Jesu
    Harmonia Romana (Anonymous)
    Bembo: Per il Natale
    Leopold I: Morte à Christo
    Leopold I: Gavotte di S.M.C.
    Sances: Pianto della Madonna
    Leopold I: Ciacona di S.M.C.
    Monteverdi: Lamento d'Arianna
    Strozzi: L'amante segreto
    Vivaldi: Nisi Dominus, Cum Dederit

    Taught by Julliard faculty and Chair of Music History Jonathan Yaeger.
