ADAPTATION | through form and function
Making some elderflower cordial. Step one: extract the beautiful flavor from the flower petals by cooking slowly.
Join us in the barn for a relaxed and fun program featuring virtuosic pieces from the earliest to latest music for solo cello without the endpin! Steuart Pincombe will bring us through two centuries of music using three different bows (baroque, transitional and modern) to show how the tools of the time influenced the music, how music pushed the ADAPTATION of the tools. He will perform works by Gabrielli, Galli, Bach, Duport, and Piatti.
Steuart first performed this program as part of a concert series taking place in homes across the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands. The barn at Farmata provides the perfect setting for this engaging, informative and fun concert.
June marks the beginning of elderberry season. After the music, concert-goers will have a chance to learn more about one of the crops growing at Farmata: the elderberry. We will share homegrown and homemade food and drinks using the flowers and berries of this special plant.
