Madness Unleashed
Murder. Madness. Windmills? Join Palaver Strings for a wild romp through the heart of Enlightenment-era Europe, where baroque manners give way to larger-than-life emotions. We’ll take you through the streets and taverns of Madrid at dusk, the travels of Don Quixote, and the passion and rancor of Gesualdo and Geminiani. Hold on to your hats and remember Cervantes’ words: “Too much sanity may be madness, and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be!”
PROGRAM
Carlo Gesualdo da Venosa (1566-1630)
Morro Lasso
Francesco Saverio Geminiani (1687-1762)
La Folia
Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767)
Don Quixote Suite
Ridolfo Luigi Boccherini (1743-1805)
La Musica Noturna della Strada di Madrid, Op. 30 No. 6
Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber (1644-1704)
Aria & battle

pindrop is...
a ticketed, classical-ish performance series taking place the first Sunday night of every month at the AERONAUT taproom in Somerville, MA, shining light on the ridiculous pleasure of collective listening. No stodginess, no competing sound–just sweet, shared silence, beautiful beers, and beautiful people. Please stay for an after-party with the artists.
#pindropsessions
The pindrop sessions are offered in partnership with WGBH, public broadcasting for New England, and supported by 99.5 WCRB, Classical Radio Boston.
