Beare’s Premiere Music Festival: Jakub Józef Orliński: Beyond

EVENT DESCRIPTION

The new operatic phenomenon, Jakub Józef Orliński collaborates with the illustrious ensemble il Pomo d’Oro to bring you “Beyond”, an experience that transcends the boundaries of time, infusing Baroque music with contemporary relevance and vitality.

“Beyond” unveils a treasure trove of musical gems from the 17th century, including a dozen world premieres, rare finds and timeless classics. With his ethereal voice, the OPUS Klassik winning countertenor breathes life into works by Monteverdi, Caccini and Netti, among others.
