The Invention of Modern Music Madrigals of Claudio Monteverdi, Sigismondo D’India Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), one of the country’s leading ensembles, is performing enchanting early music that has been dubbed as the invention of modern music. Claudio Monteverdi’s music broke the rules of Renaissance polyphony and created the foundations of modern music. Like Shakespeare, Monteverdi’s genius lay in his ability to communicate the full compass of human emotions, especially the most mysterious, tragic, and magical of them all–love. BCSD is performing these pieces in collaboration with GRAMMY award-winning lutenist and conductor Stephen Stubbs. Soloists: - Teresa Wakim, Soprano - Danielle Reutter-Harrah, Mezzo-Soprano - Jason McStoots, Tenor - Aaron Sheehan, Tenor - John Buffett, Bass - Tekla Cunningham, Violin - Aaron Westman, Violin - Stephen Stubbs, Lute - Maxine Eilander, Harp - Adrienne Hyde, Lirone - Shanon Zusman, Gamba - Michael Sponseller, Harpsichord Bach Collegium San Diego engages audiences with accessible, historically informed performances and educational programs featuring repertoire from the Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical eras. The ensemble was founded in 2003 by Music Director Ruben Valenzuela to diversify the musical offerings of the San Diego community. WHEN: Friday, March 8, 2024 at 7 p.m. | All Souls Episcopal Church Saturday, March 9 at 3 p.m. | Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church Stay Connected on Social Media!

The Jason Mraz Foundation announced “Kaleidoscope,” a musical performance by San Diego area arts program students February 17 at 7 p.m. and 18 at 3 p.m. at California Center for the Arts in Escondido. All organizations participating in the performance are beneficiaries of grants from the Jason Mraz Foundation, whose mission it is to shine for inclusive arts education and the advancement of equality. Students of all abilities and backgrounds from the following programs will perform songs from Mraz’s catalog along with the GRAMMY-Award winning musician/songwriter and recent runner-up on “Dancing With The Stars”: ● A Step Beyond Dancers ● Banding Together ● Diversionary Theatre ● Monarch Dance ● San Diego Young Artist Music Academy ● Tap Fever Studios ● Tierra Caliente Academy of Arts ● Wheelchair Dancers “Over the past few months, I pushed myself creatively, and physically more than I have in decades,” said Mraz, referencing his “Dancing With The Stars” run. “I revisited what it was like to be a beginner in the performing arts, to immerse myself in something completely new, finding strength, joy, self-acceptance, and pride as I learned and grew every week. That is the power of the performing arts, and that is the opportunity I want to share with these students as we rehearse for this collaborative concert experience.” More information on the Jason Mraz Foundation: https://jasonmraz.com/foundation/ https://www.instagram.com/jasonmrazfoundation/ https://www.facebook.com/JasonMrazFoundation/ https://twitter.com/jasonmrazfdn?lang=en
