La Donna Musicale presents All Around Love

Celebrate Women’s History Month and Early Music Month with this special concert of Italian and French Baroque women composers!
Their musical journey through love will lead you from the sultry tones of desire to the sheer ecstasy of exultation; from the dark hand of grief and despair to the clenched fist of jealousy, anger, and revenge; and finally back to resurrection, forgiveness, and the peace of the pastoral world, where all things are perfect.

Music by:

Francesca Caccini, Alba Tressina, Antonia Bembo, Barbara Strozzi, Isabella Leonarda, Elisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre, and Julie Pinel.

• Camila Parias, Daniela Tošić – voices
• Yi-Li Chang – violin, viola da gamba
• Ruth McKay – harpsichord
• Laury Gutiérrez – viola da gamba

La Donna Musicale is a non-profit research, education, and performance organization devoted exclusively to the discovery, preservation, and promotion of sacred and secular music by women composers. The ensemble uses period instruments and historical performance practices.
