Founded in 2015 in Bozeman, Baroque Music Montana is well-known throughout the region for their engaging presentations of chamber music inspired by history. We are thrilled to welcome several members of the chamber group to Tippet Rise for their concert debut, including founder and baroque violinist Carrie Krause; Nate Helgeson, performing on the dulcien, a guitar-like instrument; and John Lenti, playing the theorbo, a predecessor to the modern-day bassoon. Their performance will feature 17th century music by Italian, German, and Spanish composers intermingled with informative and lively explanations and unique insights into the oldest music of the 2024 season.

The Early Baroque era of Italian music brought a zenith of dramatic and technical display in the hands of new generations of virtuoso singers and instrumentalists. Composers and performers united in their course of revealing new depths of expression, color, and theatrical effects through music that is immediately thrilling and enthralling.  From the delicate and spatial interplay of three violins in Marini’s Sonata in Ecco to the full-throated and lovelorn dramatic vocal works of Monteverdi — including two epic narratives from his Madrigals of Love and War — this is a program that moves from mystery to magic and from the sacred to the secular.  Headliner works are Isabella Leonarda’s entrancing Sonata XII, Monteverdi’s Magnificat a 6 from the Vespers of 1610, and the same composer’s powerfully arresting setting of Torquato Tasso’s Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda. An ensemble of evocative ABS artists brings this passionate music to light in a program featuring vocal and violinistic fireworks.
