Quia Amore Langueo: the Song of Songs in 17th-Century Italy
Saturday, October 29, 7:30 pm
Church of the Good Shepherd
9 Russell Ave, Watertown, MA
In Stile Moderno:
Agnes Coakley Cox, soprano
Nathaniel Cox, cornetto and theorbo
Juan A. Mesa, organ
Set me as a seal upon your heart. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth. I am faint with love. With these and many more unforgettable images, the Song of Songs occupies a unique place in the Bible. Suffused with erotic imagery, yet historically understood in religious terms, it bridges the secular and sacred. In our fall concert, we will showcase 17th-century Italian settings of Song of Songs texts with the timbres of voice, cornetto, theorbo, and organ—the cornetto and voice intertwining as one in works for two sopranos. Complemented by instrumental works for theorbo, cornetto, and organ, these passionate and virtuosic works will make for an unforgettable evening.
