Sinfonia Spirituosa at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral
Sinfonia Spirituosa celebrates its return to live California performances with a program titled Ritournelle. Telemann is featured in our namesake piece, and in his Ouverture-Suite, which spotlights outstanding gamba soloist Eva Lymenstull. The unusual instrumentation of two violins and two cellos in Couperin's amazingly lush La Sultane, the elegant and entertaining dances of Lully's Music for the Kings Supper, and the sumptuous, playful and fiery movements from Rameau's operas display this ensembles passion for French music from this period.
Note: All audience members are required to wear masks, covering both mouth and nose, while inside Trinity Episcopal Cathedral for this concert.
Sinfonia Spirituosa is a chamber orchestra dedicated to presenting bold, historically-informed performances on period instruments. Through vibrant, collegial exchange, we aspire to faithfully bring to life the broad spectrum of color, affect and rhetoric inherent in the music of the Baroque era. The ensemble's makeup of strings, flute, bassoon, oboe, voice, harpsichord, organ, archlute, theorbo and baroque guitar allows for programing which displays an astonishingly wide variety of national styles and unique instrument combinations. Our repertoire, which spans over 100 years of Baroque music, exemplifies the spontaneous, improvisatory character of this period, and showcases the startling, cosmopolitan harmonic language of the late 17th century, the rich complexity of the German baroque style, and the sumptuous textures and dramatic flair of the late French composers.
