    Kansas City Baroque Consortium WOmenWOmen ofof NNoteote Saint Cecilia by NICOLAS POUSSIN (ca.1635) The Woman’s Voice as Composer, Patron, and Performer Concert III: Timeless Voices Friday, August 23 • 7:30 p.m. St. Paul’s Episcopal Church WELCome Dear Friends, Welcome to the final concert of our 2019 KC Baroque Summer Series. I am thrilled to welcome three remarkable musicans joining us for our program this evening! Soprano Victoria Botero, who is recognized for her rich, colorful voice and passionate storytelling; and harpsichordist (and musicologist) Alison DeSimone, who inspired and guided our programming in this summer’s celebration of women in music. One of the important ways KC Baroque seeks to build connections from the Baroque world to our contemporary world is through the commission of new works for old instruments. I am excited to present the award-winning local composer, Ingrid Stölzel, in tonight’s program with the premiere of “But a Day”. Our program notes give you a glimpse at Ingrid’s process in creating this new work for KCBC. What a marvelous journey it has been preparing this summer series of music that celebrates the voices of women in the Baroque era as performers, patrons and composers. Each program has brought riches to our ears. We’ve heard music written for the celebrated vocalists of the day, music written for or commissioned by two queens whose appreciation and support of the arts gives us a glimpse into the fascinating world of power, rhetoric and royalty. But it is this final concert of the season that offers us an opportunity to hear the voice of women composers: Isabella Leonarda, Francesca Caccini, Elizabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, Mademoiselle Duval, and Barbara Strozzi – born 400 years ago this month.

    B O U R B O N B A R O Q U E FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: John Austin Clark, Artistic Director Phone: (502) 645-7427 Email: [email protected] Bourbon Baroque returns home to Louisville in new partnership Violinist Alice Culin-Ellison joins artistic team Louisville, KY --- June 12, 2017 --- After a season of unexpected transition, the Board of Directors and Founding Artistic Director John Austin Clark have selected Alice Culin-Ellison as artistic partner for Bourbon Baroque effective immediately. In preparation for the ensemble’s upcoming eleventh season, Clark will return home this Fall to the ensemble’s flagship city of Louisville, Kentucky to “recalibrate” the organization through a renewed look at the group’s strategic plan, mission, and vision. “By partnering with violinist Alice Culin-Ellison for the leadership of Bourbon Baroque, I am confident the goals, mission, and vision we set will be realized and executed with dignified flare securing the future success of the ensemble while at the same time memorializing the foundation established passionately by our dear founder and violinist Nicolas Fortin,” Founding Artistic Director John Austin Clark states. The move back to Louisville, Kentucky is sparked not only by the new appointment of Culin-Ellison but also a personal decision motivated by Clark’s recent move to New York City, a move that brought a new appreciation for the city in which Bourbon Baroque was realized and nurtured. “Great ideas can be created on one’s own but far greater things can be envisioned and formulated in the trusting hands of a partnership steeped in passion,” says Clark.

Tonight we recognize the contribution made to the organization and to the wider musical community of greater Kansas City by the late Mark Ball. A musician’s musician, Mark left a legacy of memorable performances, talented students, appreciative audiences and congregations, and strong musical friendships. Many of the performers on the platform this evening worked closely with Mark in a variety of situations. He played an important part in the early days of KC Baroque, encouraging me to make something of my dream of a period ensemble in our town and then served on our board these last three years. Mark’s sudden passing left a large hole in the heart of our community, but the city and community are inestimably richer for the time, energy and music Mark gave us. We miss him and we thank him. I am pleased to present, this evening, a stage full of performers who offer music making at the highest level. In addition to our expanded instrumental forces, we are thrilled to have eight members of the KC Chorale joining us for the Handel chorus on the second half under the leadership of Lindsey Lang, who you heard sing exquisitely on our opening concert. Our featured soloists this evening are Kayleigh Aytes who will be familiar to many of you as well from her recent perfomances with us, and Josh Markley who is making his debut with KC Baroque.
