Early Music Ensemble Guido’s Ear Performs at Strathmore

This New York-based early music ensemble focuses on repertoire of the late Renaissance and early Baroque, a pivotal period in history when instrumental music emerged from the shadow of vocal music and came into its own. By exploring early forays into purely instrumental music and the vocal and dance tradition from which it emerged, Guido’s Ear celebrates the ingenuity of the period, when composers pushed boundaries to transform the aesthetic qualities of music.
