In between, our journey continues with The Boston Camerata’s trailblazing exploration of the American spiritual tradition, examining the intertwined traditions that have bound our nation together (We'll Be There! American Spirituals, Black and White, 1800–1900, Jan. 30–31). We will also encounter an uncanny world where the familiar is turned upside down, as Bay Area early music legend Shira Kammen and the musicians of In Bocca al Lupo draw upon the Roman de Fauvel and the Carmina Burana to show how things can all go topsy-turvy (Mundus Inversus, Feb. 28–Mar. 2). 

Spend a dramatic evening exploring the musical innovations of the early modern period with renowned ensemble Quicksilver delving into the emotionally charged "stile moderno" (Early Moderns: Extravagant New Music from the Seventeenth Century, Mar. 24). We will also reflect the legacy of migration with Ensemble Affect, exploring the works of composers who traveled from their home countries and settled abroad during the Baroque era, mixing their native compositional styles with their new country’s traditions. (Home Away from Home, Mar. 28–30).
