ABOUT THE EVENT

Jazz pianist Julian Joseph joins the highly acclaimed ensemble, The Sixteen, in a performance that explores the room for interpretation within the music of Claudio Monteverdi.

‘The first programme contains some of Monteverdi’s most vivacious sacred music but in the second programme we, along with the charismatic jazz musician Julian Joseph, have decided to revisit this great master. Instrumental ritornelli (short recurring passages) occur in all the pieces and in Monteverdi’s time these would have allowed the players a freedom of expression, embellishment and improvisation. With Julian and Mike Hodgson we will extend that idea into a baroque-jazz synthesis and see just how far we can take it.’ Harry Christophers

Experience a unique interpretation of Monteverdi's music during the Spitalfields Summer Festival.
