Elizabeth Blumenstock has a resume that would wear out the computer battery! Suffice it to say that she has recorded prolifically, traveled extensively as a soloist throughout the western hemisphere and now comes to the Petaluma Museum to perform chamber music with old friends from Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and VOT Music.The program is mostly rather early baroque....so early that some of the dates are questionable. Marini, Monteverdi, Merula, and possibly Mielczewski were all born before 1600. (for reference, Bach was born in 1685) The latest composer is Martini (unfortunately we won't have refreshments to match the composers names) who was born in 1706.
It's a wonderful representation of that age of gorgeous and very intimate music.
January 6, 7:30 at the Petaluma Museum 20 4th Street, Petaluma. $15/20
The other performers are Maria Caswell and Cynthia Albers, violin; David Bowes, viola; Gwyneth Davis and Judiyaba, cello; Phebe Craig, harpsichord.
