Pastime with Good Company - a program of popular songs and dances from the 16th and 17th centuries, will get your feet tapping and your hearts pumping. With a core theme of the traditions of the Fall season, we will present some of our favorite pieces in an intimate setting. We’re so looking forward to returning to Salon 33 for an evening of music and merriment!

Salon 33 takes place in a private home, the location of which will be sent to you once you RSVP. Salon 33 concerts are preceded by an optional potluck supper at 7pm. Music begins at 8pm.

Both Sides of the Harvest Moon is a program of Renaissance, Baroque, and traditional music that pays homage to the wonders of the Fall Season. As the program begins, we celebrate the Hunt and the Harvest, with music from the court of Henry VIII as well as traditional ballads, dances, and airs from the English and French countrysides. For the second half, we venture into the dark of the Night where the “magic” happens, with songs by Henry Purcell and Robert Johnson, and instrumental dances tunes from John Playford and Anthony Holborne. We end the program with a set of colorful songs from different folk traditions around the world that resonate with our own Halloween. Performed on period instruments, including lutes, theorbo, early guitars, cittern, recorder, and percussion.
