Join Beacon Hill Concerts on Sunday, February 4, 2024 at 3:00pm for “Cruel Amaryllis”.
This program of Italian Madrigals (17th century) consists of the musical settings of the poetry of three Italian poets (Guarini, Rinuccini, & Marino) and features works by the early baroque composers, Claudio Monteverdi and Sigismondo d’India, along with 10 others of their contemporaries. These 17th century composers collectively brought vocal music to new expressive heights unsurpassed to this day.
Two tenors extraordinaire, James Reese and Jacob Perry, are accompanied by three theorbos (lutes). (All musicians perform with Tempesta di Mare of the Philadelphia Baroque Orchestra).
