Gibraltar: A Clash Between Nations
Amaranti Ensemble: Maria Gabriela Alvarado, traverso; Kyle Collins, harpsichord; with Maria Alejandra Montero, soprano
Gibraltar: A Clash Between Nations focuses on a relatively unexplored niche in the world of early music: Spanish music in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. We will focus on the Siege of Gibraltar, a three-year conflict between Spain and Great Britain. In addition to readings from the historic narrative on the battle written by Roy and Lesely Adkins, we will feature a harpsichord piece written for the battle. Soprano Maria Alejandra Montero will be joining us, performing a set of seguidillas for voice and harpsichord by composer José Lidon. We will also explore romantic-era repertoire for the guitar and flute, arranged for harpsichord and traverso.
