The Joy of a Rich Harvest: Baroque Chamber Music for Autumn

October 6, 2024 – 4 p.m.
Connable Recital Hall, Light Fine Arts Building, Kalamazoo College

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.


Stay tuned for information about EMM’s 2025 performances!
