A journey through Renaissance and early Baroque song

Predrag Gosta – Harpsichord & Narration
Programme
Songs and instrumental works by
John Dowland · Henry Purcell · Anonymous
From Sorrow to Peace is a reflective programme tracing the emotional arc of early vocal music — from longing and melancholy to reconciliation and serenity. Centred on the intimate dialogue between voice and lute, the concert explores the expressive language of late Renaissance and early Baroque song, where poetry and music are inseparably intertwined.
The programme moves between English lute song and Italian monody, revealing shared themes of love, fragility, devotion and transformation. Spoken reflections guide the audience through this journey, illuminating the rhetorical power and emotional immediacy of the repertoire.
Performed on period instruments within the resonant acoustic of St John the Baptist, Holland Road, the concert offered a chamber-scale meditation on loss and renewal — a musical passage from sorrow to peace.

Claudio Monteverdi: Vespro della Beata Vergine (1610)
This collaboration between Ensemble OrQuesta Baroque, HMSC and New Trinity Baroque brings together three specialist period ensembles for a performance of Monteverdi’s monumental Vespro della Beata Vergine (1610), one of the defining sacred works of the early Baroque.
Combining large-scale choral splendour with intimate devotional writing, the Vespers unites Renaissance polyphony with the emerging concertato style of seventeenth-century Italy. Under the direction of Marcio da Silva, the performance balances architectural grandeur with expressive clarity, drawing on historically informed forces and period instruments.
The collaboration highlights the shared commitment of all ensembles to stylistic precision, textual sensitivity, and the vivid projection of early Baroque sacred drama.

Il ritorno d’Ulisse in patria is a landmark opera of the early Baroque, composed by Claudio Monteverdi with a libretto by Giacomo Badoaro and first performed in Venice in 1640. Drawing on the final episodes of Homer’s Odyssey, the work tells the story of Ulysses’s long journey home from Troy and his ultimate return to Ithaca, where he reunites with his faithful wife Penelope and reclaims his kingdom with the help of his son and the gods.
This project at the Ensemble OrQuesta Baroque Academy brings together instrumentalists and vocalists for an intensive workshop focusing on Monteverdi’s operatic language, stylistic nuance, early Baroque rhetoric, and ensemble collaboration. Under the artistic guidance of Marcio da Silva in stage direction and musical coaching from Predrag Gosta, participants explore historical performance practice, vocal ornamentation, continuo realisation, and dramatic expression within the opera’s rich musical and emotional world.
The residency combines daily coaching sessions with ensemble rehearsals, culminating in performances that highlight both the dramatic power and expressive subtlety of Il ritorno. This collaboration continues the Academy’s commitment to deep artistic immersion and reflects the shared dedication of Ensemble OrQuesta and New Trinity Baroque to exploring core repertoire of the Baroque era.
