Several months later, Phil, Lindsey and Jeff met in a church in Chicago to read some songs and immediately recognized the potential for good music-making. Although this meeting was an unrehearsed reading session, the church music director hired them on the spot for the church’s concert series. Since then, Lindsey, Phil and Jeff have worked together regularly as Such Sweete Melodie. Early keyboard specialist Charles Metz joined the ensemble in late 2012, bringing both his expertise and his 400-year-old Francesco Poggi virginal to the enterprise. Several months later, the quartet expanded to a quintet with the addition of baroque violinist Alice Culin-Ellison. As individual players, they participate in a wide variety of music that includes Broadway show tunes, Medieval dance music, Argentine tangos and the standards of the classical repertoire, but as an ensemble Such Sweete Melodie has gravitated to the expressively experimental music of the early seventeenth century. The band has devised programs that focus on the early years of the baroque era, featuring the music and performance styles that came to define “baroque” as a break with the old style and something clearly on the cutting edge. From the well-known—Claudio Monteverdi, Henry Purcell and John Dowland—to the obscure—Tarquinio Merula, Benedetto Ferrari della Tiorba, Nicholas Lanier and others – Such Sweete Melodie offers evocative and beautiful songs and early violin sonatas supported by the dulcet sounds of lutes, guitars, lirone, violone and virginal. Such Sweete Melodie has performed and taught on college campuses from Michigan to Mississippi and has appeared in concert in Louisville, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Indianapolis and Memphis with numerous appearances in the Chicago area. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1471404113273-9R7M76V3FTW9Y7PI0BTU/image-asset.jpeg Ensembles Armonia e Passione, a baroque string band, debuted in the fall of 2014 with concerts in Chicago and Louisville. Full-house audiences jumped to their feet at the end of those performances, applauding the technical virtuosity and musical verve of the ensemble. William Bauer (baroque violin) and Jeff Noonan (theorbo, lute and early guitars), two of St. Louis's best-known early music performers, have worked together in a variety of ensembles for over twenty years. They are joined by Celina Boldrey Casado (baroque violin), a well-known pedagogue and performer in St. Louis, and Stephanie Hunt (baroque cello), a European-trained musician who has quickly established herself in the region as a popular teacher and respected performer. The ensemble presents music heard in the chapels, courts and cathedrals of Rome, Venice, Florence and other cities across Italy in the vibrant years of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In these years, composer/performers like Biagio Marini, Antonio Bertali, Arcangelo Corelli and Antonio Vivaldi invented and expanded the technique and repertoire for the violin, bringing a low-class folk instrument into the church and court with an inventiveness and technical flair never heard before. The music of these composers features blistering scales, intricate double-stops and heart-wrenching Adagios. In creating a new way of playing, these composers laid the foundation for modern music and the later violin music of Bach, Handel, Mozart, Beethoven and beyond. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1471404921298-IGTFCAXQJQ2KP3H5CEG3/image-asset.jpeg Ensembles Using the violin and its early repertoire as a gateway, the duo Musicke’s Cordes embraces a wide swath of 17th-century instrumental music including fantastic Italian sonatas, elegant French suites and rustic English variations on popular tunes. Musicke's Cordes--baroque violinist Samuel Breene and lutenist Jeffrey Noonan--offers programs that feature the experimental instrumental music of the 17th century. .Violinist Samuel Breene and lutenist Jeffrey Noonan met in 2013 at the Newberry Library in Chicago as participants in a colloquium sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Informal reading sessions that summer evolved into a performance plan and for a decade, the duo has performed and taught across the country as the duo Musicke’s Cordes. Over the years, they have played concerts featuring early Italian violin sonatas, 17th-century music written for German courts and chapels, violin music popular in late 17th-century England and violin music preserved in manuscript sources. The duo regularly collaborates with other musicians and ensembles, leading to concerts featuring German sacred music by Biber and Buxtehude and a program of English song by Purcell, Wilson, Dolwand and others. Their most recent program offers sonatas, character pieces and dances composed for Alpine courts in the 17th century. Musicke’s Cordes performs regularly across the Midwest and on the East Coast with recent appearances in Denver and Santa Fe. They have appeared on concert series and university campuses as well as at academic conferences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/c546121a-abf7-4d4a-84f4-69ef9621e8cc/Trio+edit+1.jpg Ensembles - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. http://jjnoonan.net/new-page daily 0.75 2020-12-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608003180349-BIX0E57BY3IFJRE97NLJ/Final%2BEdit%2BTrio%2B1--11-1-2017.jpg Audio & Video Links https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608003832530-ZQYDWSW34O9HQP32LNXP/EMMo+2-2020+from+Pat+5.jpg Audio & Video Links https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608002337085-QY5OH6DXX3N4ZMEGR6Z7/Resized+Logo+Image.jpg Audio & Video Links http://jjnoonan.net/audio-video-links daily 0.75 2021-12-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608003180349-BIX0E57BY3IFJRE97NLJ/Final%2BEdit%2BTrio%2B1--11-1-2017.jpg Audio & Video Links https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/84adddb8-6b06-4218-9a35-31a13128669f/Both+%281%29.png Audio & Video Links - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608002337085-QY5OH6DXX3N4ZMEGR6Z7/Resized+Logo+Image.jpg Audio & Video Links https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/571bf61701dbae7d74e50275/1608003832530-ZQYDWSW34O9HQP32LNXP/EMMo+2-2020+from+Pat+5.jpg Audio & Video Links
