Music for a Viol

Presented by Joseph Sharon (over zoom)

“He plays o'the viol-de-gamboys, and speaks three or four languages word for word without book, and hath all the good gifts of nature”.
(Twelfth Night, act 1, scene 3)

For 200 years the viol (or Viola da Gamba) with its dark, languid tone reigned as the chief string instrument among professional and amateur musicians. Let’s explore the rich repertoire of chamber and solo music from Elizabethan England through late 17 century France and up to the 3 great sonatas of J.S.Bach.

The Medieval Song

Presented by Joseph Sharon (over zoom)

Passion, devotion, and drinking are some of the themes of medieval songs. From the unrequited love of the troubadours to the Marian praise songs in the Castilian court to the debauchery of university students, let’s explore the variety of music created by knights, poets and sinners in the period 1100-1300.

Monteverdi's Madrigals and the Dawn of Baroque

(Presented by Joseph Sharon)

Although Claudio Monteverdi is best known as the father of the opera, it is his eight books of madrigals, published by between 1587 and 1638, which represent the gradual change of musical aesthetics - from the renaissance paradigm of a perfectly balanced counterpoint to expressive, bizarre, sometimes harsh writing - baroque.

The Healing Power of Music (Dr. David Chandros)

Have a look at the science behind music therapies. Music has been shown to reduce anxiety, awaken forgotten memories in dementia, increase immune responses, manage depression and possibly affect chemical processes in the body. Some anthropologists believe that we sang before we ever had language! Let's listen to music of all types and see their effect on health.

Join us on Friday, March 4th at 2:00PM EST for a presentation over zoom on "women composers" - not just “wife of…” or “sister of…” but great artists in their own right.
