The Music Series presents: Biber’s Mystery Sonatas in Thomsen Chapel

March 18, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 2023, 7:30 P.M. & SUNDAY, MARCH 19, 2023, 2:30 P.M.

(two identical performances)

The Mystery Sonatas (also known as Rosary Sonatas) by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber (1644–1704) are incredibly virtuosic meditations for violin on Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection. They comprise three sets: The “Joyful,” “Sorrowful,” and “Glorious” Mysteries. Baroque violinist Tekla Cunningham will perform the whole cycle in various area venues this season, offering Set Two—the intensely expressive “Sorrowful Mysteries”—in the intimacy of Saint Mark’s Thomsen Chapel during the season of Lent. Joining her are Henry Lebedinsky on organ and harpsichord, and David Morris on viola da gamba and lirone.
