Encounter – From Baroque to Bossa Nova | |
Fri 9 March 2012, 7.30pm |
(Not an ILAMS concert, but one we highly recommend!) What would happen if Monteverdi and some Baroque companions had travelled to South America? Or if Tom Jobim had to play his songs on a baroque guitar? The Ensemble Il Festino takes you to on an exciting journey presenting the influences of mixed cultures on the traditional way of performing baroque music. And to make this adventure complete they also bring a fascinating approach on the performance of modern Latin repertoire. Not to be missed!
