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.
