House of Time presents "1685: Year of Genius: Bach, Handel, and Scarlatti"
House of Time is dedicated to both well-known and underperformed repertoire of the 17th through the 21st century played on period instruments. Members include Juilliard faculty and graduates as well as prize-winners of major international competitions. Using the instruments and techniques of the past to express the vivid passions in the music, House of Time has moved audiences and keeps them coming back for more. Critics have declared oboist, Gonzalo X. Ruiz, one of only a handful of truly superb baroque oboists in the world (Alte Musik Aktuell). Tatiana Daubek, violinist, is known for her expressive and personable performances. Harpsichordist, Avi Stein, one of NYCs finest, is described by the New York Times as a brilliant organ soloist and Beiliang Zhu, is described by the New Yorker as elegant, sensual and stylishly wild.
House of Time has been presented by Berkeley Early Music Festival, Czech Center New York, Early Music Festival: NYC, and The University Club. Upcoming appearances include San Diego and Francisco Early Music Societies, Yale Collection of Musical Instruments and Lobkowicz Palace in Prague. They also give free outreach concerts at Mount Sinai Concerts for Patients in New York City.
On November 10th and 11th, House of Time presents the program, "1685: Year of Genius: Bach, Handel, and Scarlatti". That year, lightning struck not twice but thrice, with the births of three of the greatest composers of the age: J.S. Bach, Handel, and Domenico Scarlatti. The endless wit and invention of the Italian master's keyboard sonatas is the perfect foil for the towering chamber music of the German giants.
House of Time ensemble members are: Tatiana Daubek, violins; Gonzalo X. Ruiz, oboe; Beiliang Zhu, cello and viola da gamba; and Avi Stein, harpsichord, each of whom perform on period instruments.
