Boundary Issues III: The Third Annual Shindig de Chambre, Lexington Jan. 17

Under the direction of early keyboardist Vivian Montgomery and violinist Julia McKenzie, the female members of the early music collective Eudaimonia, A Purposeful Period Band, will present "Boundary Issues III: The Third Annual Shindig de Chambre" at Follen Community Church in Lexington on Friday, January 17 at 8:00pm. Admission is Pay What You Decide -no advance tickets. The concert has as its social action partner On The Rise, Inc., a Cambridge nonprofit organization that provides safety, community, and advocacy for homeless and formerly-homeless women. For Boundary Issues III, Eudaimonia will again push the boundaries, this time through music evoking the freedom, fragility, honesty, power, and wisdom of birds and trees, spanning the early 17th century to new arrangements, with French cantatas and a bluesy romp in between. This passionate excursion features soprano Pamela Murray, mezzo Carrie Cheron, flutist Na'ama Lion, chalumeaist/clarinetist/saxophonist Diane Heffner, violinist Julia McKenzie, violist Elisabeth Westner, cellist Claire Garabedian, and harpsichordist/accordionist Vivian Montgomery.
