Ensemble Eclectica @ FiveSparks

Join Ensemble Eclectica for a special performance at the beautiful FiveSparks Arts Center in Harvard, MA!

Ensemble Eclectica weaves together early music and jazz in a lively and light-hearted conversation of genres and styles, finding that these divergent musical traditions have much more in common than we might think.

From Thelonious Monk on the theorbo (a large ancient lute) to gentle Jazz scatt improvisation on songs from the Renaissance, this innovative quartet (Peter Lehman, theorbo & seven- string guitar; Rick McGlaughlin, stand up bass; Fabio Pirozzolo, percussion; and Louise Grasmere, vocals) takes listeners on journey that spans centuries, sparks surprising musical connections, and creates a sound that is at once old, new, surprising and fun.

This event is made possible in part by a grant from the Harvard Cultural Council.
