Global Baroque: Concert and Dinner
Join us for an amazing evening with appetizers, a delicious Chef’s Italian dinner, dessert, and cash bar, followed by a moving classical music concert by the Wyoming Baroque ensemble on Friday, May 3. Doors open at 5:30 p.m., dinner is served at 6 p.m., and concert begins at 7 p.m.
In the 17th and early 18th centuries, composers invented a new, expressive musical style designed to stir the listener’s emotions. Later called “Baroque,” this musical language spread internationally and is sometimes referred to as the first global genre of music. Wyoming Baroque’s “Consort of Nations” showcases 18th-century composers from Europe, Africa, North America, and South America and their unique musical language.
The concert is under the direction of Wyoming Baroque Music director Dr. Mark Elliot Bergman, and features Brenda Hodnett as soprano soloist. Instruments featured include two baroque violins, a baroque viola, baroque cello, baroque double bass, harpsichord, and baroque soprano. This is a unique opportunity to hear Baroque music performed in keeping with how it was originally composed.
Tickets for Wyoming Baroque Presents Global Baroque are $75 per person general admission, and $65 per person for Buffalo Bill Center of the West members.
