Early Music Voices: Délices de la Solitude (Scaramella)
Pre-concert talk at 2:30pm.
Mélisande Corriveau, pardessus de viole, bass viol
Joëlle Morton, bass viol
Eric Milnes, harpsichord
Scaramella, directed by Joëlle Morton with two other outstanding early music specialists, will present this unique concert of music for viols and harpsichord. It will include a very special pardessus, which is seldom heard. The smallest member of the viola da gamba family, the "pardessus de viole" was designed to meet the expressive needs of aristocratic French dilettantes. It was continually modified, and ultimately abandoned. Despite this brief appearance in the evolution of music, it is the subject of a remarkably rich history, and many of the most distinguished viol players of the period performed on it.
