[…] been encouraged and well educated in music by her father, the librettist Giulio Strozzi. She was supposedly adopted, but most likely the illegitimate daughter of Strozzi and a family servant. An 'outsider', therefore, in terms of social position and artistic inclination, she forged a remarkable and individual path as a musician, with enormous tenacity.Tomorrow's concert explores not only Strozzi, but also the French composer Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre and Strozzi's similarly prolific compatriot Antonia Bembo, also a pupil of Cavalli. Heather Newhouse sings, the cellist is Benoît Morel and Franck-Emmanuel Comte is at the harpsichord. Our talk is at 6.30pm and the concert at 7.30pm. More details and booking here.

Love’s All Around for La Donna
La Donna Musicale (Javier Parra photo) Period instrument ensemble La Donna Musicale and its director Laury Gutierrez have brought many female composers from out of the shadows and onto the stage. Their “All-Around Love” concert on Thursday night came off like a “Greatest Hits” collection just in time for Valentine’s Day. The ambitious program included madrigals, cantatas, songs, arias, instrumentals and sacred pieces from two different musical capitals and ten different composers, spanning more than a century of different styles.
