2021–22 Concert Season

With Clouds Descending: An Advent Songfest

​

December 12, 2021, at 7:00 PM

Amethyst Baroque Ensemble performs works written before 1750 on instruments copied from historical originals. Amethyst members Alexandra Dunbar (harpsichord and organ), Jody Miller (recorder), Adrin Akins (countertenor), and Marcy Jean Brenner (viola da gamba), are joined by Baroque violinist Ian Jones in this program of Advent music.  The four Sundays leading to Christmas are a time of excitement as we await the birth of Christ. From ancient plainsong to the cantatas of J.S. Bach, Amethyst Baroque celebrates the more joyous aspect of the Advent season.
