Who were the people playing this music, anyway? Were they at all like us? Did they also hate Mondays?
Rezonance brings you a lighthearted look at the everyday, with music that incorporates folk elements as well as amusing stories about the composers and musicians of the time. Works to be performed include: Variations on ‘Hit Her on the Bum’ (our favourite title), folk tunes by O’Carolan, adaptations by Geminiani, and more!
Rezonance Baroque Ensemble is one of the most exciting groups on Toronto’s classical music scene. Unafraid of improvisation and experimenting with new concert formats, and already known for giving captivating performances that resonate with today’s audiences, Rezonance is one of the foremost chamber music interpreters in Toronto. Inspired by history and informed by the present, Rezonance leads audiences through the discovery of under-appreciated and unusual works, and new ways of hearing the classics, in a manner that is intimate, accessible, and fun, while maintaining the highest possible artistry.
