“The ensemble … made it quite clear why they’re generating such excitement in the early music world. The four musicians brought energy and vigor to their music, playing with technical surety, [and] complete ease…. They worked together with tremendous ensemble sense … supporting each other’s ideas beautifully.”—Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Imperfect Circle: Chromatic, Circular, and Wandering Music

The accomplished Canadians perform a unique program of idiosyncratic Italian pieces and two of their favorite sonatas by Buxtehude. Berardi’s Canzone prima, Chi la fà, l’aspetti, or “What goes around comes around,” implies the “imperfect circle” of the concert’s title. Chromatic movements abound—for example, the Capriccio Chromatica from Veracini’s Sonata XII.
