Dear Friend,
For nearly 50 years, Renaissance & Baroque has presented exceptional
performances of music from the Middle Ages through the Early Classical
period by world-renowned artists.
For 27 years, Chatham Baroque has been performing on stages throughout
the world, charming their fans while becoming one of the nation’s most
distinguished period ensembles.
Both organizations have long called Pittsburgh home and have
demonstrated a steadfast commitment to bringing the very best
in Early Music to audiences.
And now, the missions of both organizations have
been united to fulfil our shared goals. Whether
you are a fan of R&B, CB, or both, we encourage
you to experience all of the rich and distinctive
musical offerings included in our parallel and
complementary series.
We look forward to sharing this extraordinary
season with you, and we appreciate your
patience and welcome your feedback during
this period of transition. We fervently believe
that CB + R&B = a winning combination
for music lovers that will help to ensure a
sustainable future for Early Music in our region.
Thank you for your support.
Enjoy.

The Rose EnsembleLand of Three Faiths: Voices of Ancient Mediterranean Jews, Christians, and Muslims Saturday, October 6, 8:00 PM Synod Hall, Oakland
The Rose Ensemble’s “Land of Three Faiths” program explores with audiences the rich musical, cultural, and linguistic exchanges and collaborations that took place among people of different faith traditions in medieval Spain. The result of years of intensive research and training, “Land of Three Faiths” is at once sacred, secular, folk, and classical. Featuring instruments and musical ideas that blur the lines between Arabic and European, this entertaining and enlightening program achieves a perfect balance of edgy improvisation, diverse vocal styles, and ancient traditions.
This engagement of The Rose Ensemble is made possible in part through the ArtsCONNECT program of Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
Jaap ter Linden & David BreitmanBeethoven: The Music for Piano & Cello Saturday, November 3, 8:00 PM Synod Hall, Oakland
This is a rare chance to hear Beethoven’s music played on instruments of his time. Jaap ter Linden, although famous as a baroque cellist, has always been a fervent Beethovenian. His mastery on gut strings is perfectly paired with the keyboard work of historical fortepiano expert, David Breitman. This all-Beethoven program will include two contrasting cello sonatas, a charming set of variations, and the late Bagatelles op. 126 for solo fortepiano.
AyreheartCenturies Collide
Saturday, January 12, 8:00 PM Synod Hall, Oakland
GRAMMY-nominated lutenist Ronn McFarlane founded Ayreheart in 2010 out of the desire to write new music for the lute—the most popular instrument of the Renaissance—and make it accessible to a wider audience. Joined by versatile musicians Willard Morris and Mattias Rucht, the original music
of Ayreheart reflects elements of Celtic, Folk, Bluegrass, and Renaissance music.
ACRONYMFrom Venice to Vienna Saturday, March 23, 8:00 PM Calvary Episcopal Church, Shadyside
Hailed by Early Music America as “groundbreaking, gutsy and fresh,” ACRONYM explores the cross-fertilization of 17th-century musical styles between the masters of Venice and Vienna and the subsequent transmission of these ideas by German and Austrian composers throughout Europe. This program with 11 superb players includes favorites from ACRONYM’s first five recordings: works by Pruili, Valentini, Bertali, Capricornus, Pezel, and Rosenmuller. A not-to-be-missed first appearance on the R&B series.
QuicksilverStile Moderno: New music from 17th-century ItalySaturday, April 27, 8:00 PM Synod Hall, Oakland
Quicksilver’s Stile Moderno examines modern music as it was invented by virtuoso instrumental composers in 17th-century Italy. It is also an exploration of those composers’ new invention, the sonata: a pure instrumental work, with no agenda but imagination. Led by co-directors and violin virtuosi Julie Andrijeski and Robert Mealy, this program of “new music” is virtuosic, experimental, unexpected, and deeply moving. Music by Castello, Fontana, Merula, Marini and more.

A band of two baroque trumpets, nine strings, continuo, and percussion explores the exhilarating, programmatic music of armed conflict known as battalia, in contrast with the beauty and charm of baroque dance as portrayed in whimsical balletti.
With guests:Shelby Lewis, Chris Carrillo (natural trumpets)Evan Few, Kristen Linfante, Paul Miller (violins and violas)Adam Pearl (harpsichord & organ)Danny Mallon (percussion)
