DARK HORSE CONSORT TOWER MUSIC OF THE STADTPFEIFER
Inspired by the Roman bronze horse statues in St.
Marks Basilica, the aptly named Dark Horse
Consort is dedicated to unearthing the majestic late
Renaissance and early Baroque repertoire for brass
instruments. German Municipal Bands, or
Stadtpfeifer, from this part of musical history played
for major civic events and kept the hours performing
in the tower in the city center. This program
features the works of composers Samuel Scheidt,
Andreas Hammerschmidt and Johann Rosenmüller,
played on cornetti, period trombones, recorders,
harpsichord and organ.
This program is co-presented with Bach Society of Houston.
