A Busy Week!

This continues to be a busy summer for the Camerata staff! We’ve been hard at work on the upcoming season and CD release, yes, but there are many tasks even further behind the scenes that have been simmering this summer as well.

Yesterday we moved our office from our longtime location in Boston’s Chinatown to Tremont Street, just across from the Boston Common. (Our mailing address and phone number are staying the same, if you were worried.) We share some scenes from the day, with Peter and Caitlin at their desks in the new office!

Meanwhile, here is an update from our Artistic Director Anne Azéma, who is also hard at work on the other side of the world, along with vielle player Shira Kammen. You will hear them both during our March 2022 offering, Douce Dame Jolie. We wish them good luck for their upcoming performances in the Netherlands this week-end. 

Camerata Musicians Say:
“We’ll Be There!”

Summer is a time to relax and enjoy life, agreed. But for a company like ours, it’s also a season of intense work, preparing for the musical events to come, beginning in the fall.

Our roster of superb artists for Camerata’s 2021-22 season is now virtually complete, and we want to share their portraits with you. Individually and together, they will be there, singing and playing repertoire ranging from the European Middle Ages to the historic American spiritual tradition, providing us all with beautiful music and vital life energy during these challenging times. Please come see and hear these exceptional people! We would love to hear from you.


Top row: Anne Azéma, Luke Scott, Camila Parias, Ian Saunders, Allison Monroe
Middle row: Jordan Weatherston Pitts, Craig Juricka, Milton Wright, Mildred Walker, Christa Patton
Bottom row: Dan Hershey, Michael Barrett, Shira Kammen, Deborah Rentz Moore, Joel Cohen

And, as a later-summer gift, here’s a lovely American spiritual, “Something New,” to announce our season full of new things, and to celebrate the renewal of life that comes with programming and casting for the coming months.
