Joined by Ian Pritchard (harpsichord/organ), Maxine Eilander (baroque harp), Malachai Bandy (viola da gamba), baroque violinist Andrew McIntosh will give a rare complete performance of Heinrich Biber’s Rosary Sonatas.

Composed circa 1675, these fifteen magnificent pieces evoke the entire range of human experience, from tender and sublime to outrage and triumph, and follow the story of the life of Christ as depicted in the Catholic Mysteries of the Rosary.

Radically virtuosic and experimental, each sonata features a different tuning on the open strings of the violin, creating unique resonances and timbres that are matched individually to the characters portrayed in each sonata.

The fifteen Rosary sonatas are divided into three sections, each lasting approximately 40 minutes: the joyful mysteries, the sorrowful mysteries, and the glorious mysteries. The performance will be presented with two intermissions.
