Haydn and the Ladies of London
The Berry Collective: Julia McKenzie, violin; Rebecca Shaw, cello; Barbara Allen Hill, soprano; Sylvia Berry, fortepiano
During his second London season in 1794-95, Haydn wrote some of his most beloved music for three accomplished women. The sonatas and trios written for esteemed pianist and composer Therese Jansen are monumental masterworks that would not exist were it not for her talent. The "Gypsy" trio, written for talented amateur pianist Rebecca Schroeter, is a perennial favorite, and Haydn's settings of poet Anne Hunter's texts reveal a true creative partnership between the two. Ms. Berry performs on a Broadwood fortepiano built in London only a decade after Haydn's sojurn there.
8pm - Chapel at West Parish, 210 Lowell St. Andover, MA (inside the cemetery grounds)

Pilgrims’ Progress: Music of the Plimoth Colony Settlers
Seven Times Salt: Karen Burciaga, violin, voice; Dan Meyers, recorders, flute, percussion, voice; Josh Schreiber Shalem, bass viol, voice; Matthew Wright, lute, voice
Contrary to what the history books may tell us, the “Pilgrims" were a highly diverse, sometime fractious group of Separatists and Anglicans, religious zealots and irreverent opportunists. In this hour-long concert-lecture, we'll follow the settlers from turbulent 1590s England to religious refuge in the Netherlands and onward to their challenging, though fulfilling, lives in 1620s Plimoth Colony. Includes music of Thomas Morley, John Dowland, and J.J. van Eyck; spirited catches by Thomas Ravenscroft; selections from the Dutch ‘t Uitnement Kabinet, stirring psalms from Sternhold & Hopkins' Whole Booke of Psalmes, and tunes from The English Dancing Master.
