At the Temple of Juno celebrates the coming of summer by honoring the goddess Juno and all she represents: power, jealousy, rage, love, childhood, and rejuvenation. Enjoy masterpieces by Handel, Purcell, Vivaldi and Scarlatti, as well as rarely heard gems by De Lalande, D’Ambruys and Charpentier – all in a program that flows seamlessly from one affect to the next!
“This concert is a chance to enjoy a wide variety of musical gems. Rather than adhering to multi-movement, full-work structure of most programs, we’ve chosen some of the most exciting and breathtaking passages we know and crafted them into a six-chapter narrative punctuated by poetry and myth. Whether you’re a die-hard early music lover or new to this extraordinary style, this program will have you transfixed,” says Cullen O’Neil, founding Relic cellist.
Relic members include violinists Kako Boga, Aniela Eddy, Toma Iliev, Natalie Rose Kress, Rebecca Nelson and Chiara Stauffer, cellist Cullen O’Neil, bassoonist Georgeanne Banker, harpsichordist Robert Warner, bassist Sue Yelanjian, and theorbist Cameron Welke.
