Description

Who is the “Other”? …Exoticism in Baroque music and dance

We gaze upon the exotic characters in early entertainments through a lens fashioned by the composers and librettists themselves revealing an imagined foreigner. As in a dream these “exotics” are products of our own minds. The “Other” is us.

Christa Patton, harp
Peggy Murray, dancer
Eloy Cortinez, recorder
Mary Riccardi, violin
