James Ruff, Tenor, Early Gaelic Harp Singer, and Historical Harper presents a collage of early music for harp and voice from Gaelic Scotland, recreating the 17th-century world of the historic harper-bards.  Rarely heard intimate chamber pieces from a Hebridean harp manuscript, stately formal laments commemorating great clan chieftains, poetic and musical invocations of the famed Keppoch murders, and more.

West Park, NY: Holy Cross Monastery: Kairos: A Consort of Singers, under the direction of Edward Lundergan, continues its 2019 season with a concert titled "Dead Poets Society" on Sunday, November 17, at 3:00 p.m., in the intimate and acoustically superb chapel of the Holy Cross Monastery, 1615 Route 9W. This beautiful program includes settings of poetic texts from the heart of the Renaissance to the present day, in different languages -- from the unsurpassed heights of the Italian madrigal settings to the classical glories of German poets Schiller and Goethe and charming doggerel by English Romantic poet John Keats. Petrarch, Christina Rosetti, Giovanni Battista Guarini, Walt Whitman and Guillaume Apollinaire are some of the "dead" poets featured. The musical settings are by Poulenc, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Lassus, Monteverdi, and Woodstock composer and resident George Tsontakis. A highlight of the concert is a performance of American composer Dominick Argento’s A Nation of Cowslips, a delightful and witty set of seven bagatelles on nonsense text by Keats. Dr. Argento served as Professor of Music at the University of Minnesota for 40 years and retained the title of Professor Emeritus until his death earlier this year. Tickets to the concert are $20 for general admission, $15 for seniors, and $5 for students and youths. Tickets may be purchased online at the Kairos website or by calling 800-838-3006 and requesting Event No. 4426053.  http://www.kairosconsort.org/→
