PROGRAM

Baroque Expressions from Italy and England, Mallarmé/William S. Newman Artists Series Collaboration

This winter, TENET Vocal Artists will head out to Virginia and North Carolina to share deeply expressive music from Claudio Monteverdi’s Italy and Henry Purcell’s England. Among the ensemble’s specialties, TENET explores the rich and fruitful way baroque composers crafted duets as a way to double the impact of a single idea through the use of two voices or instruments with powerful and dazzling results.
