On Monday early evening, September 9 at 5:30 PM at St. Mark’s, the Capitol Hill Chamber Music Festival and St. Mark’s Episcopal Church present “Canzonas, Sonatas and Suites”, which features Marlisa del Cid Woods on baroque violin, William Simms on both theorbo and baroque guitar, and Jeffrey Cohan playing renaissance and baroque transverse flutes in an exploration of the central period of transition between Renaissance and Baroque instrumental styles, featuring notable composers of the early 17th century, followed by baroque flute, violin and theorbo performing music from Italy and France by high baroque composers Corelli and Lully. Please see chcmf.org/dc.
The Capitol Hill Chamber Music Festival returns to St. Mark’s for the first time since the pandemic with three programs of early chamber music from four centuries performed on period instruments that explore the amorphous dividing line between the Renaissance and the Baroque in the midst of what came before and after, all co-sponsored by St. Mark’s and with performances also in Annapolis and in Baltimore. The suggested donation, a free will offering, will be $20 to $30. All are most welcome regardless of donation, and 18 and under are free.
