Also featured is Georg Telemann's Suite in A minor for recorder and strings, with Lorenza Cooper as recorder soloist.  The Early Music Ensemble Singers present several settings of the ancient Magnificat text from the Gospel of Luke, including the chanting tone as it would have been performed in monasteries and convents and a 16th century setting by Orlando di Lasso in which chant verses alternate with harmonized verses.  The Singers and Baroque Orchestra combine in one setting by an unknown mid-17th century composer and another by Johann Christian Bach, Sebastian's youngest son, known as the "London Bach."  Christian Bach had great influence on 8-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus   Mozart, and actually composed this music while the young Mozart was visiting in London.

DESCRIPTION:ASPECTS OF MUSIC, ASPECTS OF LOVE

Virginia Tech's Early Music Ensemble presents a 
program of Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque 
favorites to open the 2005-2006 season under the 
direction of John Howell.  The concert is at 3 
p.m. on Sunday, November 6, in the Recital Salon 
of Squires Student Center on the Virginia Tech 
campus.  It is free and open to the public.

A selection of sacred music including Medieval 
chant, organum, conductus, and Sch?tz's lovely 
motet "Selig sind die Toten" explores aspects of 
the love of God and the love of and veneration of 
the Saints of the Church.  Another selection of 
Renaissance pieces explores different approaches 
to the love of a man and woman, some sweet, some 
complaining, some almost naughty, leading up to a 
scene from Monteverdi's last opera, 
"L'Incoronatione de Poppea," in which the 
teenaged Valetto and Damigella, sung by Brian 
Vorees and Anne Butler, discuss innocent young 
love.

The later Baroque and its musical aspects is well 
represented by instrumental music by Pachelbel, 
Handel, and Corelli's Church Sonata No. 1, 
featuring violinist Ashley Keffer. 
Harpsichordist Daniel Corneliussen will play one 
of the earliest surviving Medieval pieces for 
keyboard, and the entire company will join 
together for Orlando Gibbons' "Cries of London," 
in which he pokes some gentle fun at the street 
vendors he could hear daily as he walked to his 
job as organist at Westminster Abbey.

This program will be repeated as part of the 
School of the Arts outreach program at Holy 
Trinity Lutheran Church in Lynchburg on Sunday, 
November 13, and will be performed again as a 
community service at Warm Hearth Retirement 
Village in Blacksburg.

DESCRIPTION:Virginia Tech's Early Music Ensemble, directed by Prof. John Howell, will present a Winter Concert featuring varied ensembles and special student soloists at 3 p.m. on Sunday, February 26, in the Recital Salon of Squires Student Center on the Virginia Tech campus.  The program is free and open to the public.

The Baroque Orchestra will introduce the seldom-heard Symphony No. 1 of William Boyce, English composer and leader of the Chapel Royal, and continue by accompanying Lorenza Cooper in Antonio Vivaldi's Concerto in C Major for Flautino, an instrument that in Vivaldi's time meant the sopranino recorder.  All the instrumentalists of the Renaissance Band?Violin consort, Brass consort, Recorder consort and Crumhorn consort?will join forces for "The Queen's Branle," a true early 17th century Battle of the Bands.

Individual soloists will include Michael Balch, with two Pavanas by Luis de Mil?n from one of the first collections of music intended for guitar, and violinists Ashley Keffer, Peter Grossman, cellist Jessica Brown and harpsichordist Daniel Cornielussen in the Trio Sonata in E Minor by violin virtuoso Arcangelo Corelli.

Georg Philipp Telemann's New Years Cantata, "Sing Unto the Lord a New Song," brings the entire company together along with soloists tenor Dan Troha, alto Ariane Henderson, baritones Steven Belcher and Chris Gregory, and sopranos Anne Butler, Ali Haskins and Amanda Trent to close the program.

LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:Opera Roanoke's special Sunday performances open with "Noye's Fludde" by Benjamin Britten.  Celebrated for his full length operas "Albert Herring," "Peter Grimes" and "Billy Budd" among others, English composer Benjamin Britten based his 1957 short opera "Noye's Fludde" after the famed Chester Miracle Play from the late 15th century.  Britten's wish was to create an opera to be performed in a church setting with children singing in the opera.  Where the roles of Noye, Mrs. Noye and the "Voice of God" are performed by adults, Britten created roles for children to perform 35 different pairs of animals set to enter the ark.  Opera Roanoke is proud to present this tale as a partnership with Roanoke Catholic School.  This special Sunday concert will also feature choral music with the Virginia Tech Chamber Singers.  ***This performance will take place in Shaftman Hall at Roanoke's Jefferson Center.

DESCRIPTION:Opera Roanoke closes out its season with a breathtaking concert performance of Verdi's Macbeth, featuring spectacular soloists, the Roanoke Symphony, Virginia Tech's University Symphonic Choir, and the Blacksburg Master Chorale.  The first of Verdi's several nods to his literary hero, William Shakespeare, Macbeth premiered in Florence in March 1847.   The opera's creation was a labor of love for the composer as he wrote to his librettist, Francesco Piave: "This tragedy is one of the greatest creations of man!"  Verdi's own great creation will take the stage at the Jefferson Center's Shaftman Theatre with baritone Todd Thomas in the title role and soprano Carter Scott as his tenacious Lady Macbeth.   Thomas brings to Roanoke a career that has taken him to Germany and back in performances of Rigoletto, Falstaff, Tosca and Pagliacci among others. Scott's recent engagements include American stops with Santa Fe, New York City Opera and San Diego Opera, where she sang opposite Renee Fleming in Rusalka.  Her European engagements have included work with the Bremen and Dortmund opera houses.  Maestro Steven White conducts this haunting masterpiece of political thrills and chills.  ***Concert to take place in Shaftman Hall of Roanoke's Jefferson Center.

DESCRIPTION:	Virginia Tech's Early Music Ensemble, directed by John Howell, presents "An Early Music Salon" at 3 p.m. on Sunday, November 4 in the Recital Salon in Squires Student Center on the Virginia Tech campus.  The program is free and open to the public.

Following the informal format of Mozart's concerts or Paris's famous musical salons, individual songs and movements of larger works will be mixed and matched for a variety of musical experiences.  Trios sonatas by Corelli for violins, by C.P.E. Bach for viola and bass recorder, and by the little-known English composer Benjamin Hely for bass viols will alternate with part-songs by Arcadelt, Bachieri, Ravenscroft, and the carol celebrating the English victory at the battle of Agincourt.  Vivaldi's Double Concerto will showcase cellists Jessica Brown and Paul Smith, while the Baroque Orchestra will present the modern world premier of an Entrata by Christoph Graupner, a competitor of J.S. Bach for the position of Kantor in Leipzig for which Bach was only the Town Council's third choice.

SUMMARY:Sipes/Cowden Recital
LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:A Chain of Verse and Song:  Baritone Theodore Sipes and pianist Tracy Cowden perform an innovative program of songs by French, American and British composers and poets.  By linking poets and composers via song settings, the program highlights the essential role that poetry plays in the creation of art song.  Songs of Ernest Chausson and Reynaldo Hahn are linked by the poetry of Paul Verlaine, and in turn Hahn?s songs become the link between the poetry of Verlaine and Robert Louis Stevenson.  The end result is an engaging program of beautiful poetry and music.  
 
The varied program incorporates the music of Chausson, Debussy, Hahn, Vaughan Williams, Bacon, Copland, Farwell and Ivica Ico Bukvic and the poetry of Bourget, Silvestre, Leconte de Lisle, Verlaine, Robert Louis Stevenson, Whitman, and Dickinson.

SUMMARY:Guest Artist Workshop: Highlands Chapter VMTA
LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:You're a singer, are you?  Or a pianist?  or a musician?  Or an artist? Then expressing  emotion is your  goal.  This means you must be romantic,
irrational, irresponsible, and capable of having your audience believe you are that emotional person capable of expressing hatred, happiness, love and desperation.   On Saturday, September 27, 2008 the Virginia Tech Department of Music and the Highlands Chapter of the VMTA present a special workshop and master class "Sound, Sentiment and Subtleties of Expression:  What
Pianists Can Learn From Singers" with tenor Donald George (Associate Professor, The Crane School of Music - SUNY Potsdam) and pianist Lucy Mauro (Assistant Professor, West Virginia University) at 11:00 a.m. in Squires Recital Salon.  The workshop is centered on developing performing abilities from the perspectives of both singer and pianist.  Areas of successful
performance will be discussed, along with systematic steps for building students' abilities in such areas as musical expression, style,
communication, and involvement.  The structured methods of Wesley Balk, Walter Felsenstein and Constantin Stanislavski are included as well as
specific exercises and musical examples.  Ideas to help develop  students' abilities to connect emotion to performance technique,  to communicate
effectively with the audience through music, and to deliver an involved interpretation of the score are presented. While the workshop is centered on singers and pianists, the concepts explored are applicable to all musicians.

LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:
Branch Fields, whom Opera America describes as "a bass of resonant richness," and The New York Times declared to be "a gifted young bass," will perform a guest artist recital in the Recital Salon at Virginia Tech, Thursday evening, September 17, 2009 at 8:00 p.m.  Mr. Fields was recently chosen to understudy the role of Emile de Becque in SOUTH PACIFIC at the Lincoln Center Theater, a Bartlett Sher directed production, which has won seven Tony Awards.  His versatility as a singing actor allowed him to join the ensemble while understudying Emile de Becque, a first for this Broadway production.  Mr. Fields was busy in 2007/08, his third season performing with the New York City Opera, singing the roles of Angelotti TOSCA, Major Domo VANESSA and Zuniga CARMEN.   In addition to his duties at New York City Opera, last season included performances at Asheville Lyric Opera and Opera Company of North Carolina as Raimondo LUCIA DI LAMMERMOOR and at Opera on the James as Colline LA BOH?ME.  An audience favorite, all of these regional companies invited Mr. Fields back this season, slating him to sing the roles of Sparafucile RIGOLETTO, Alidoro LA CENERENTOLA and Commendatore DON GIOVANNI, respectively, in 2009.
