Catherine McWhinnie will be the guest of Tafelmusik at The Worlds of
Salamone Rossi. “Luminous soprano Emma Kirkby joins Tafelmusik in telling
the story of 17th cent
ury Jewish
composer Salamone Rossi. Confined to live in the Jewish ghetto yet revered by the
ducal court in Mantua, Rossi was caught between two worlds. Emma Kirkby joins a
consort of singers and members of the Tafelmusik Orchestra to perform Rossi’s
secular and sacred works including his Songs of Solomon.” (February 2 – 6,
2005)
Dorothy Rubinoff will be
receiving a copy of Tafelmusik’s latest
CD, Cleopatra with Isabel Bayrakdarian. Congratulations!
