????????? ?????????? explores how music functioned as a medium of devotion, knowledge, and cultural exchange in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, tracing the circulation of musical ideas across convents, courts, and Jesuit missions linking Europe and Qing-dynasty China. Bringing together sacred vocal works and instrumental repertories, the program invites listeners to hear Baroque music as a global practice shaped by movement, encounter, and translation.

Works by Barbara Strozzi, Isabella Leonarda, and Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre illuminate women’s authorship and expressive authority within early modern religious and courtly cultures, while music by Corelli reflects Rome’s central role in shaping instrumental style across Europe. These traditions intersect with the work of Jesuit missionary-composers Teodorico Pedrini and Joseph-Marie Amiot, whose compositions document some of the earliest musical exchanges between Europe and China.

Performed on period instruments, Celestial Encounters reveals Baroque music not as a fixed canon, but as a living network of circulation—where sound, belief, and knowledge traveled across borders and were continually reshaped through encounter.
