Audiences at this year’s Solo & Chamber Music Series at Pittsburg State University can expect six unforgettable performances by award-winning musicians.
This concert continues the series with the Baltimore Consort, founded to perform instrumental music of Shakespeare's time. The group forged its identity as an ensemble dedicated to exploiting the diverse sound colors offered by gut- and wire-strung, plucked and bowed strings, and transverse and end-blown flutes and recorders, capped reeds, and percussion.
In their second performance at Pitt State since 1997, Baltimore Consort will perform the program, “Crossing to the New World - Early and Traditional Music in the British Isles, France, and North America,” honoring the rich trove of music North American settlers brought from their “old countries” to the shores of the New World. These are the songs and dances preserved in Appalachia as well as French and Scottish Canada, and some from the original sources on the other side of the Atlantic.
The concert will be held in McCray Hall.
Tickets are on sale now at the Pitt State Ticket Office in the Weede Building, 1701 S. Homer, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday, or online.
Students are admitted free with a valid PSU ID.
