Lookouts Aloft! A Composer Puts Out to Sea
[…] Novello also finally tackled it, and so my work has been muted, but I am the richer for having delved into this composer and this piece, one of her first real triumphs and a piece that should be right alongside the big requiems, firmly in the canon for all choral societies and ensembles. I hope my edition and Novello’s make many, many full performances possible. Cappella Clausura, Amelia LeClair conductor, and SHIFT Orchestra Project, David Flowers conductor perform Mass in D by Dame Ethel Smyth at 4pm on March 3rd Emmanuel Church in Boston. Tickets are on sale now through the website: clausura.org, or patrons can charge by phone at 617.993.0013. Single tickets: over 30 @ $35, under 30 @ $15.

And whilst music director of Hamburg opera, Telemann would mount productions of Handel's operas.The exotic Flowers never arrived, because the sea captain who acted as courier heard a (false) rumour that Telemann was dead. When Handel ascertained that Telemann […]
