with Nightingale Vocal Ensemble and The Pandora Consort

Nightingale will team up with early music trio The Pandora Consort to explore the exquisite and innovative music of Claudio Monteverdi and his “new sound." Monteverdi is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers and innovators in Western music history. Through selections from his nine books of madrigals and his personal letters, this performance weaves a narrative of Monteverdi’s life as a musician and the challenges of being a visionary in one's time.

with Meravelha Medieval Ensemble on the SoHIP Concert Series

The quest for political power has changed little over the centuries. Kings and Presidents, popes and senators, all have their partisans, their detractors, their scandals, and their victories. Long before today's 24-hour news cycle, the propaganda machine ran on verse. Meravelha’s timely tour of Medieval political songs explores themes of nationalism, corruption, greed, propaganda, and justice for the common people. The program includes songs of the troubadours, works by Philip the Chancellor and Robert Morton, and selections from the Roman de Fauvel, the Trinity Carol Roll, the Notre Dame conductus repertoire, and the Carmina Burana. Between songs, the performers provide cultural and historical context for the music, and modern readings from social media and public commentary connect these works to our contemporary experiences.

This venue is not air-conditioned.

This concert will be recorded on July 23 and will air on YouTube on Aug 8

soloist with Musica Maestrale on the SoHIP Concert Series

Barbara Allen Hill, soprano
Daniel Meyers, recorders
Hideki Yamaya, Renaissance lute and theorbo

Musica Maestrale makes their SoHIP debut with a program of music highlighting the charming courtly songs of 17th-century France. Dating from the reigns of the French kings Louis XIII (“the Just”) and XIV (“the Sun King”), these pieces were primarily meant for private consumption by the nobility, and they display a tender, intimate side of early- to mid-Baroque music. Airs by Moulinié, Lambert, Guedron and their contemporaries, as well as instrumental solos by Ballard, de Visée, and others express sentiments of loss, longing, and heartbreak—still very relatable subjects to us today, who are separated from the original intended audience through time and social status.

This venue is not air-conditioned.

The concert will be recorded on July 16th and will be made available on YouTube on Aug 1, 2025
