In celebration of 400 years of the Dutch in New York City (2024), this program highlights music from the late Dutch Golden Age. Echoing the subtle palettes of de Lairesse and Vermeer, the warmth of the string ensemble is adeptly utilized by the Dutch Baroque composers, in particular Benedictus Buns and Carel Hacquart. Works by Wilhelm and Hellendaal complement the gentle glow of the more nuanced compositions with lively and dazzling technical showmanship.
As The Crow Flies is a new collective of musicians exploring music along the trade routes of the 17th and 18th centuries. Made up of musicians from The Juilliard Historical Performance program, the ensemble seeks to rediscover long-lost treasures by traversing the well-worn paths of old. As The Crow Flies performs music ranging from the continent and the Low Countries, to the more far-flung west and eastern reaches; and hopes to broaden our understanding of historical performance practice.
