SEICENTO BAROQUE ENSEMBLE
SEICENTO BAROQUE ENSEMBLE
REQUIEM in F by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber
MUSIKALISCHE EXEQUIEN by Heinrich Schütz
Sat. Feb. 18 7:30pm
(Ticketed Event)
The newly-formed Seicento Baroque Ensemble is Colorado’s only choir to specialize in performances of lesser known 17th and 18th century Baroque choral music using historically-informed performance practices. The ensemble fills a void in the Colorado choral scene by performing inspirational and worthy Baroque choral music, both a cappella and accompanied, generally from Western Europe. This music influenced many composers, including J.S. Bach and Handel. This ensemble is under the direction of Evanne Browne, who presented the only (ever) performance of Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 in Colorado, including a performance at Bethany Lutheran Church.
