Vivaldi: But NOT "The Seasons"!
Rezonance Baroque Ensemble - presented by Hammer Baroque
Sat. February 25, 2023 - 3:00 PM
Another round of Vivaldi, this time featured as part of Hammer Baroque's
concert series,in Hamilton. Rezonance brings you the vocal pyrotechnics
of coloratura soprano Vania Chan. Some, such as the Domine Deus from
his "Gloria", may be familiar, while others are the hidden gems you have
come to expect from Rezonance programming. Get to know a different
side of Vivaldi's orchestral music as well, with a selection of his concerti
for strings - no one instrument gets to shine in these concerti that
showcase the entire orchestra.
The Rock on Locke (320 Charlton Ave. West, Hamilton).

Christmas Vespers as it might have been heard under the direction of
Michael Praetorius in 17th-century Germany. In the spirit of the season,

A New Opera by Madeleine Thien (librettist), Alice Ho (composer),

Vania premieres the role of "Wenli" in this story of family and neighbourhood, racism and resistance, history and tomorrow. In two acts and two hours it examines six characters, two families, and a chorus of male ghosts, from the building of the CPR through to our own times. It deals with violence and despair, the Head Tax, the Exclusion Act, paper sons, and paper promise.
