Basso Celestia rounds out their spring season by performing at home in Baltimore, MD, at 2640 Space! The group will present a concert of works by baroque Italian women. A $10-$30 suggested ticket price can be offered in person or by Venmo to offset tour costs, and additional donations will help support the future of the group as we build towards a 501c3 status. But most importantly - we just want you there!
Barbara Strozzi and Isabella Leonarda were both prolific composers, and noted as two of the first women to publish collections of music under their own names. Featuring an assortment of sacred and secular soprano duets, this program is a journey of women speaking through women, of navigating the complexities of life, and of finding passion and strength in extreme emotions.
With Leah Wenger and Morayo Akande as featured sopranos, Katerina Kotar on baroque cello, and Cameron Kuzepski on harpsichord, we will be joined by guest artists along the way to bring this exciting music to life!
