That's D'amore! at McNichols Civic Center

Colorado Chamber Players welcome Baroque musicians Matthew Dane, Barbara Hamilton (Violas D'amore), Ann Marie Morgan (viola da gamba), Eric Wicks (harpsichord) and Daniel Hutchings (tenor) as they continue celebrating the CCP's 25th Anniversary Season, with a Baroque program featuring the mysterious Viola Damore- a resonating instrument with 14 strings! The D'amore has 7 upper strings and 7 resonating strings.

Heinrich Bibers masterpiece from the Harmonia Artificioso, Bachs gorgeous tenor arias from Cantata 36a "Auch mit gedämpften" and "Erwäge, wie sein blutgefärbter Rücken" from the St. Johns Passion showcase the silvery personality of the Damore. Often called the viola of love, this concert gives a unique opportunity to hear an intriguing instrument.

An astounding contemporary work by Garth Knox, adds to the fun. Not to be missed!
