Cornetto Player

In the 16th and 17th centuries the vast majority of images of cornetto players were depictions of angel musicians, often in the company of angelic voices, viols, violins, trombones, organs and harps. Taking this image as a point of departure, the concert is pairing of the voice and the cornetto, exploring the wonderful way the voice and cornetto can play off of each other in diverse repertoires from the 17th century to the present day.  Included are works by Sigismondo D’India, Giacomo Carissimi, Alessandro Scarlatti and Giovanni Bononcini.  Featured will also be two newly commissioned works which will be bridged to the earlier works through Erik Satie’s Les Anges. This is a compelling program not to be missed!
