Friday, September 16, 2005. Travels with Bernhard Böhm. The Montreal Recorder Festival. Has begun. The first concert was billed as Wind instruments from the Stone Age to the Baroque.

Early Music Montreal: Autour de la Flûte - autour de Vivaldi
http://earlymusicmontreal.blogspot.com/2005/11/autour-de-la-flte-autour-de-vivaldi.html
Saturday, November 05, 2005. Autour de la Flûte - autour de Vivaldi. This is the second season for Autour de la Flûte. It is delightful to go to a concert with so many young musicians. I have seen a number of them play with some of the larger ensembles (Arion, SMAM) and here they got to shine. The future of early music in Montreal is assured. I am so impressed with Mika Putterman's playing. In the Vivaldi concerto for piccolo and orchestra in D major she played on a baroque piccolo. She creates a...An ed...

Early Music Montreal: Arion - Tra Roma e Napoli
http://earlymusicmontreal.blogspot.com/2005/11/arion-tra-roma-e-napoli.html
Saturday, November 05, 2005. Arion - Tra Roma e Napoli. The extracts from the oratorio Il Primo Omicidio were more interesting. It started with a beautiful solo violin part. The orchestra sounded great throughout. The concert could have used more variety in the selection of music. Posted by susanvg at 6:47 PM. Share my love of Early Music.

Saturday, November 05, 2005. Just a few quick comments. This was a delightful concert. Planned as a palendrome with the second half approximately a mirror image of the first, we were treated to love songs, hunting songs, sorrowful songs. The ensemble have a polished sound. They can be serious, playful and lyrical. I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. Posted by susanvg at 6:47 PM. Arion - Tra Roma e Napoli. Posted by susanvg at 6:47 PM.

Early Music Montreal: Les Voix humaines - Violation
http://earlymusicmontreal.blogspot.com/2005/10/les-voix-humaines-violation.html
Saturday, October 29, 2005. Les Voix humaines - Violation. The lights dimmed and a drone, soon joined by a simple melody, began the concert, transporting us back through the centuries to medieval Spain. Eight viols filled the hall with their rich, mellow sounds. It was lovely to hear such a large ensemble. A lively rendition of Ortiz's Ricercada Secunda changed the mood. The lights got brighter and the rhythms got more complex. I was very impressed with Nan Mackie's playing in the Adaskin Adagio and Alle...
