CANTO: Phrase it Like a Singer?
In his Canto column, historical oboist Geoffrey Burgess argues that modern circumstances too often take us far from the collaborative nature of early music and the shared goals of singers and instrumentalists. Understandably, many singers feel the need to become generalists. But now is the time to re-evaluate our current practices.
Checking in with Ensembles Old and Brand New
As the Boston Camerata celebrates its 70th season, two new early-music ensembles are making their debuts. In Cleveland, an outfit called CLE Concierto offers music by Élisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre. In Vermont, Burlington Baroque presents an inaugural festival aiming to start a year-round series. Exciting times ahead.
