Corelli - A Lover of Art and Long Walks
Carrie Krause, baroque violin & Sarah Stone, baroque cello & Gabe Shuford, harpsichord
BaMM will embark upon a rural tour presenting Corelli’s Opus 5 Sonatas (1700) which changed the course of western music. The performances will pair this exploration of Corelli – Rome’s greatest violinist who amassed an incredible art collection – with rural art galleries, art studios, and museums in 8 performances with baroque violin, cello, and harpsichord. These concerts will illuminate artists, rural artistic spaces, and Montana’s historic value of visual and aural art.

Fairest Isle
Carrie Krause & David Greenberg, baroque violin
Anna O’Connell, harp
Nate Helgeson, baroque bassoon & Annabeth Shirley, cello
John Lenti, theorbo
Come away with us on a journey to the British Isles. 18th century England was a melting pot of traditional and cutting-edge arts, where folk melodies blended with new French and Italian forms. We explore these developments in music of Purcell, Handel, Oswald, Jones, and others. Bringing together dance tunes, song arrangements, and courtly sonatas, this program truly has delights in store for everyone.
David Greenberg has a new solo recording Multiple Voices for One. Check it our here: davidgreenbergviolinist.com.

Beyond Baroque
Six High Places
Carrie Krause, violin & Genevieve Trygstad-Burke, dancer
In the summer, Carrie will take a solo piece from by fellow Fairbanksan and Pulitzer Prize winning composer John Luther Adams to six local peaks, along with dancer Genevieve Trygstad Burke, artistic director and founder of Raison D’Être Dance Project, for ‘climate-curated’ performance. Together they will play music and improvise dance on the summits.
The public is invited to hike up and join as Carrie plays “The Wind at Maclaren Summit” from Adams’s Three High Places. They will peform the piece three times to ensure everyone gets a chance to witness this amazing work. Carrie and Genevieve are both trail runners and hike at a brisk pace, so starting off before they do may be in order.
Dates from June 13—25. Peaks are Baldy, Sacagewea, Ramshorn, Blackmore, Sphinx, and Emigrant. Times listed are for parking lot departure. See calendar for details.
Please note this is a pop-up style event and those joining should take responsibility for their own adventure.
