Bringing ancient and rare music to Southwest Michigan
Since 1996, Early Music Michigan has been performing early music in a dynamic, varied, and historically informed manner that honors this body of rare and ancient musical treasures, the artistic voice, and the humanity of collaborative music making. We welcome new singers and instrumentalists who would like to perform with us!
Upcoming events
The Joy of a Rich Harvest: Baroque Chamber Music for Autumn
October 6, 2024 – 4 p.m.
Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church, Kalamazoo
To inaugurate the new EMM Chamber Series, we present eighteenth-century music celebrating autumn, including a period arrangement of the beloved “L’Autunno” from Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons paired with Andreas Oswald’s musical celebration of autumn, a seasonal cantata by Joseph Bodin de Boismortier, and a suite from Les Saisons by Jean-Baptiste Lully.
A Baroque Noël
December 1, 2024 – 3 p.m.
Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, Portage, MI
To celebrate the Christmas season, we will present the Messe de Minuit of Marc-Antoine Charpentier. This special mass is based on ten beloved French Noëls, which we will feature in settings for organ and chamber ensemble. To that end, we will be joined by Michigan-based historical performance ensemble “Les Écuries du Roy,” an oboe band who will perform with us on reproductions of seventeenth-century instruments.
About Early Music Michigan
EMM specializes in bringing to the public rarely performed music dating back hundreds of years, as well as music from our own time, performed in beautiful spaces with wonderful acoustics. As an early music ensemble emphasizing historically informed performance, we occupy a valuable niche, providing music and creative programming that would not otherwise be available in the greater Kalamazoo area.
