Soprano Rosa Lamoreaux joins this leading baroque ensemble to explore little-known Western classical music from eighteenth-century China and the Americas. The program features sonatas by Italian composer Teodorico Pedrini, written and performed in Beijing for the Chinese emperor in the early 1700s. Rediscovered gems written in Mexico, Peru, and Philadelphia by Domenico Zipoli, Antonio de Salazer, and Raynor Taylor are complemented by music by Rameau and Purcell invoking the New World of the European imagination.
The Washington Post called Rosa Lamoreaux “one of Washington's greatest natural resources,” possessing “an intelligence and scrupulous musicianship that pay dividends in all the music she performs.” The Four Nations Ensemble is directed by harpsichordist Andrew Appel and includes Charles Brink, flute; Krista Bennion Feeney, violin; and Loretta O’Sullivan, cello. Presented in conjunction with the exhibitions Family Matters: Portraits from the Qing Court and Power|Play: China’s Empress Dowager.
