Pen e Tormenti: Multimedia homage to Giacomo Carissimi

A brief immersion into the baroque world of Carissimi through his (live) music as well as the poetry, visual arts, and architecture he was surrounded by. Student-run. Free.

HOP Garage
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Arts, Performances

We're bringing Italian music from 400 years ago to life - some never recorded before - through a brief live performance with digital visuals!

Giacomo Carissimi.. What's his music like? What poetry was he exposed to? What visual architecture was he surrounded by? 
Come hear how you could get involved with manuscripts of music abroad... And how love's difficulties were just as real back then as they are today.
