Breathtaking-Program-Notes
PROGRAM NOTES In the 16th and 17th centuries, the cornetto was fabled for its remarkable ability to imitate the human voice. This concert is a celebration of the affinity of the cornetto and the human voice—an exploration of how they combine, converse, and complement each other, whether responding in the manner of a dialogue, or entwining as two equal partners in a musical texture. The cornetto’s bright timbre, its agility, expressive range, dynamic flexibility, and its affinity for crisp articulation seem to mimic a player speaking through his instrument. Our program, which puts voice and cornetto center stage, is called “breathtaking” because both of them make music with the breath, and because we hope the uncanny imitation will take the listener’s breath away. The Bolognese organist Maurizio Cazzati was an important, though controversial and sometimes polemical, figure in the musical life of his city. When he was appointed to the post of maestro di cappella at the basilica of San Petronio in the 1650s, he undertook a sweeping and brutal reform of the chapel, firing en masse all of the cornettists and trombonists, many of whom had given thirty or forty years of faithful service, and replacing them with violinists and cellists. He was able, however, to attract excellent singers as well as string players to the basilica. His Regina coeli, from a collection of Marian antiphons published in 1667, alternates arioso-like sections with expressive accompanied recitatives, and demonstrates a virtuosity of vocal writing that is nearly instrumental in character. We could almost say that the imitation of the voice by the cornetto and the violin alternates with an imitation of instruments by the voice. -

Early Baroque Keyboard Instruments Music for the Cimbalo Cromatico and Other Split- Keyed Instruments in Seventeenth-Century Italy* Christopher Stembridge The Concept of the Cimbalo Cromatico Although no example of such an instrument is known to have survived intact, the cimbalo cromatico was a clearly defined type of harpsichord that apparently enjoyed a certain vogue in Italy during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.1 The earliest use of the term is found in the titles of two toccatas per il cimbalo cromatico included by Ascanio Mayone in his Secondo Libro di Diversi Capricci per Sonare published in Naples in 1609.2 Subsequently the term was used in publications by This is the first of three related articles.

Concert Reviews (2011–2017)
Concert Reviews (2011–2017) From 2011 through 2017 I occasionally reviewed concerts for the online Boston Musical Intelligencer, imagining that by offering commentary on local performances I might provide information about the music for listeners and helpful suggestions for performers and presenters. But of course this was quixotic, not to say presumptuous, and on the rare occasions when my reviews solicited comments these were usually to complain about their length or my criticisms of anachronistic performance practices and inaccurate claims in program notes. I discovered, too, that as a performer myself, and one who knew and has worked with and even taught some of those I found myself reviewing, it could be difficult to preserve my objectivity or to avoid offending people. An additional frustration was that many of my reviews appeared with editorial changes that introduced not only grammatical errors and misspellings but sometimes misstatements of fact, even altering the views I had expressed. I know that few things are as stale as old reviews, but for the record I include below all these reviews as I wrote them, arranged by date of publication from the most recent to the earliest. At some point I learned that it was preferable to invent a cute-sounding headline than to have one foisted on my review, and where I did this I’ve included it together with my byline. A few of these are accompanied by my photos, although the only one of these that ran originally was the one of the Resistance protest in Copley Square in January 2017.
