CantabileSingers.org DIRECTOR’S NOTES Welcome to Cantabile’s final concert of the 2017–18 season. This year our repertoire has celebrated gathering places of knowledge such as the Boulder library and Longmont Museum; it has allowed us to focus on the love we have for family and friends, but from the darker perspective of Brahms’ Neue Liebeslieder, and from the sillier perspective of Homer Simpson’s undying love for his wife Marge’s delicious pork chops. Cantabile brings you music that is both deeply emotional and thought provoking and we hope to have imparted these messages from the experience of learning and performing these wonderful works for you, our audience. Our 2018–19 season will mark Cantabile’s 30th since becoming a non-profit organization. We hope you will join us for what is sure to be a year of celebration. Please look at the back of our program for the dates and titles of those concerts. If you aren’t already on our electronic mailing list, please consider joining to learn more about those concerts, or visit cantabilesingers.org. Thank you for your attendance today and throughout this season of music. The two composers presented in this concert were each master composers and performers during their lifetimes. Antonio Vivaldi and Antonio Caldara shared much more than just a first name: both learned their craft in Venice’s St. Mark’s Basilica learning from Giovanni Legrenzi, a prominent composer who acted as maestro di cappella; both played string instruments: Caldara was hired early in his musical life as a cellist and Vivaldi rose in popularity as a virtuoso violinist; both composed successfully in a myriad of genres, including opera, instrumental chamber music, and sacred vocal music.
