RenChorNY Presents: Austro-Hungarian Court Composers

RenChorNY presents Austro-Hungarian Court Composers

Like her grandfather Maximilian I, who employed Isaac and Senfl, Mary Queen of Hungary brilliantly employed the Court composer Thomas Stoltzer to set Luther’s new 1524 Hebrew-German Psalm translations to pioneering 6/7vv. polyphony. Ludwig Senfl arranged Josquin’s ‘Ave Maria’ to 6vv.

These and other of their motets and lied are featured by RenChorNY, led by Richard Porterfield.

UPTOWN ARTS STROLL: José Luis in the Parlor at Dyckman Farmhouse

Friday, June 7: 1PM-3PM

Jose Luis has been performing for over thirty years and is highly regarded as a gifted harpist by his peers. Jose Luis is the only harpist to play both the classic concert harp and the Latin lever harp; which requires him to pluck the strings with two different techniques; the first uses his fingertips and the second his nails.

Jose Luis first fell in love with the sound of the harp and began studying in his early teens with Maestro Jose Serrano in Puerto Rico. He later visited Los Angeles to take private lessons with the world-renowned harpist and composer Alfredo Rolando Ortiz.

Viernes, 24 de mayo: 1:00 p.m. a 3:00 p.m.

José Luis lleva más de treinta años tocando el arpa y es muy respetado por sus colegas como un arpista talentoso. José Luis es el único arpista que toca tanto el arpa de concierto clásica como el arpa de palanca latina; lo que requiere que toque las cuerdas con dos técnicas diferentes; la primera utiliza los dedos y la segunda las uñas. José Luis se enamoró por primera vez del sonido del arpa y comenzó a estudiar en su adolescencia con el Maestro José Serrano en Puerto Rico. Más tarde visitó Los Ángeles para tomar clases con el mundialmente reconocido arpista y compositor Alfredo Rolando Ortiz.
