The Art of the Trio — Songs without words from the Italian Baroque
Andrew Fouts violin
Patricia Halverson viola da gamba
Scott Pauley theorbo & baroque guitar
Baroque Italy was the birthplace of the instrumental sonata. Germinated from a bold new style of music established at the start of the 17th century, where harmony serves the affections of melody, the sonata developed to showcase instrumental virtuosity and expressivity; the power of music to move the listener even without words.
Through the works of Castello, Fontana, Marini, Pandolfi, Matteis, Corelli, and others, Chatham Baroque delves into the vast and varied treasures of Italian Baroque music throughout the 17th and early 18th centuries.
