Rosary Sonatas of Heinrich Biber

The Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary are five episodes in the Passion of Christ, given wordless meditation in Heinrich Biber’s sonatas for scordatura violin and continuo. During Lent 2019, Fiona Hughes and Sarah Darling will alternate performances of the solo sonatas, joined by Wesley Hall, organ; Erik Higgins, bass; Loren Ludwig, viola da gamba; and William Simms, theorbo.

Devotion and Delight

English & American Hymnody
May 9–11, 2019

Cellist Steuart Pincombe, mezzo-soprano Michelle Pincombe, and special guest Keith Collins (American gourd banjo, harp, bassoon, & mountain dulcimer) join in this program of New World music alongside its English counterparts. From “Sing We the Virgin Mary” to “Froggy Went A-courtin’,” a wealth of American folksong and hymnody owes its roots to an Old World heritage.
