Concert Calendar

	2008-2009 Upcoming Events A Piper's Noël Ciaramella celebrates shepherds and the Chrismas music they inspired. With voices and wind instruments (shawm, sackbut, recorders, and bagpipes), they’ll pipe and sing songs of praise. For centuries, the annunciation to the shepherds from Luke 2:8-15 has provided inspiration for musical works, from humble pipers' tunes to grand Renaissance polyphony. Ciaramella, the American wind, brass and vocal ensemble, taps this resource for its Christmas program that includes carols, hymns, lullabies and instrumental pieces from England, France, Spain, Italy and Germany. Adam Gilbert, Rotem Gilbert, Doug Milliken, shawm, recorder, bagpipe Debra Nagy, shawm, recorder Greg Ingles, Erik Schmalz, slide trumpet, sackbut

	The Musical Treasures of the Medici Popes Transport yourself to Renaissance Rome as a majestic church provides an inspiring setting for music by Josquin, Isaac and other composers who furnished music for papal Rome at the height of its political power. Singers, shawms, sackbuts and recorders will bring this music to vivid life in a splendid sanctuary encompassing the many architectural styles one often finds layered in the churches of Rome, from Early Christian to Renaissance and Baroque. “Elegant, incisive music-making” (Cleveland Plain Dealer) at a masterpiece landmark joining the work of John Austin, architect of the Griffith Observatory, and Giovanni Smeraldi, whose fanciful murals decorate the ceiling of the Biltmore’s Crystal Ballroom. “One of the finest ensembles in the world for this special repertoire…truly inspiring” (San Francisco Classical Voice). Adam Gilbert, Rotem Gilbert, Doug Milliken, shawm, recorder, bagpipe Debra Nagy, shawm, recorder Greg Ingles, Erik Schmalz, slide trumpet, sackbut
