Friday, September 9, 2011 at 5:30 pm “Crimes and Passion: Love and the Criminal Underworld in Spanish 17th Century Song” The Gabarron Foundation - Carriage House Center for The Arts 149 East 38th Street, Between 3rd and Lexington Ave (4,5,6 Train) United States http://www.gabarronfoundation.org events@gabarronfoundation.org
Tickets: Free Collective
“Crimes and Passion: Love and the Criminal Underworld in Spanish 17th-Century Song” is a semi-staged performance that provides insight into the Spanish Golden Age through music. This program draws upon three 17th-century dramatic interludes: the anonymous "Baile de Marizápalos," “La Visita de la Cárcel” (the “Visit to the Jail”) by Luis Quiñones de Benavente and the anonymous “La Cárcel de Sevilla”. Additionally, members of the Collective, whose focus is interpreting 17th-century song from figured bass or 'basso continuo', will interweave popular tunes with courtly songs by José Marín (who had many run-ins with the authorities, and was even sentenced to the galleys) and the royal composer Juan Hidalgo, and will present reconstructions of popular forms such as jácaras and folias, some created by the performers themselves. The performance will feature the singers and players of the Collective on baroque guitars, vihuelas and lutes, preceded by a brief introduction to these instruments and this period of Spanish music by members of the Collective.
