Vincent DumestreLE POÈME HARMONIQUE – November 7, Bourgie Hall LiveEvents October 30, 2017 4099 LE POÈME HARMONIQUE Danza! Never did the dance hold such a prominent place as it did in 17th-century France. In this recital of works for voice accompanied by guitar and castanets, Danza! presents Spanish music performed in Paris during the Baroque period. With its folias, sarabandas, and españolas, the French ensemble Le Poème Harmonique re-establishes the importance of Spanish culture in the ballets de cour under Louis XIII and Louis XIV, as well as the French infatuation with the Iberian culture. Isabelle Druet was crowned “Révélation artiste lyrique” at the 2010 Victoires de la Musique in France, and pursues a remarkable international career. Her regular contributions to projects with Le Poème Harmonique are consistently met with critical and public acclaim. Artists Isabelle Druet, mezzo-soprano Vincent Dumestre, theorbo, guitar, and direction Fiona-Émilie Poupard, violin Lucas Peres, bass viol Thomas de Pierrefeux, violone Pere Olivé, percussion Programme LUIS DE BRICEÑO Españoleta Andalo çaravanda Lloren, lloren mis ojos, excerpt from the Libro de tonos humanos LUIS DE BRICEÑO El caballo del marques Que tenga yo mi mujer ANTONIO MARTIN Y COLL Diferencias sobre la gayta PEDRO CALDERÓN DE LA BARCA Monologue de Segismundo (La vida es sueño) HENRY LE BAILLY Pasacalle de la Locura LUIS DE BRICEÑO Canario ETIENNE MOULINIÉ El baxel esta en la playa ANONYME No soy yo, excerpt from the Cancionero de Uppsala FRANCISCO BERXES Ay, que mal LUIS DE BRICEÑO Folia Serrana, si vuestros ojos Di me de que te quexas For tickets and information: www.mbam.qc.ca 514-285-2000 Bourgie Concert Hall 1339 Sherbrooke Street West H3G 2E8
