  • Description:

    You're invited to Night Two of Baroque & Unknown: An Evening In Barbara Strozzi's Artist Salon

    We're going back in time, Bill & Ted style, to learn more about Unknown Women Composers of the Baroque era while creating space for community conversation. On night two, we'll be talking about social creative circles while listening to a series of talented vocalists showcase Barbara's work.

    Musicologist, Charissa Noble, will help us explore the fascinating question: What happens when we decentralize the composer and recognize the inherently social nature of music?

    Come into the world of a Courtesan and a Converso as we explore Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677) and Leonora Duarte (1610-ca. 1678). Strozzi, a Venetian composer who studied under Cavalli, and Duarte, a composer from a Jewish Portuguese family in Antwerp, will be spotlighted in this immersive event.

    Women of The Creative Voice and Wendi Kirby Music, along with other Surprise Guests will highlight a brief program of Strozzi’s works, as we engage in a salon-style experience.

    Food and beverage tastings provided and seating is limited.
