Dumbarton Concerts
​
Resplendent Baroque music for soprano written and inspired by women. This program is centered around solo cantatas by Barbara Strozzi and Francesca Caccini, two of the “under-sung” female composers of the era, accentuated by Bach and Handel arias for soprano as well as interludes of instrumental excellence that the Consort is so known for. More information here.
Sebastian in The Outer Edge of Youth
with Back Bay Chorale
Saturday, March 2, 2024 at 4:00 p.m.
The Cathedral Church of St. Paul, Boston
​
Amy sings the role of Sebastian, a role she created and was acclaimed for by Opera News, Gramophone, and BBC Music Magazine. Commissioned by The Thirteen, Scott Ordway's The Outer Edge of Youth is a choral opera that explores and critiques the relationships between childhood, landscape, aesthetics, and contemporary ideals of masculinity. The Washington Classical Review calls it "a hypnotic, haunting fable…The Outer Edge of Youth has both the solemnity and wonder of an oratorio and the heightened emotion wrung from the enhanced reality in which opera specializes…the music shimmers, soars, and settles…creating an ecstatic catharsis.” More information here.

Saturday, May 4, 2024 at 5:00 p.m.

Bach - Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben (BWV 147). Heather Adelsberger conducts.
