<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#C00000">At tomorrow’s noon hour concert (12:30 pm in the chapel), Susie Napper and Margaret Little—viola da gambists—will transport us back to the music of King Louis XIVth’s court. Relax over your
lunch hour with their warm, intimate sound. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#C00000"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Here is what some of the reviewers are saying:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt">"The performers clearly speak this music as if it were their mother tongue. They revealed not just the music’s charms, but also the sensuality and soul…" National Post (Canada)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt">"Canadian ensemble Les Voix humaines, joined by guest gambist Wieland Kuijken, bring their usual elegant and sensitive playing to this quintessentially French music." Early Music America (USA)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt">"The interpretation they give us here – technically unequaled, sensitive, extremely expressive, rich in colors, and also full of spirit – is striking evidence of the grandeur of Sainte-Colombe." Toccata (Germany)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#C00000">Then tomorrow night, the Instrumental Chamber Ensembles will be performing in the first of two concerts this week. Their other concert (entirely different program) will be on Sunday evening,
December 2. Both concerts take place at 7:30 pm in the chapel, with a reception to follow.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#C00000">I look forward to seeing some of you at these concerts,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
