…Joel Cohen’s fiftieth, at Brown University, where we were invited in late May to perform excerpts of our “Carmina Burana” program. We asked Joel, who led Camerata soloists and the Brown Madrigal singers for the event, how he felt about performing a selection of medieval student songs, fifty years past his graduation day. “Actually, I am not introspecting that much,” he replied. “Just trying to get this show on the road.”
But the performance was, in fact a smash success, earning bravos and a standing ovation from the capacity crowd at Brown’s Andrews Hall. Congratulations to Brown’s guest-of-honor Joel and to all the performers, and mark your calendars as the full-length “Carmina Burana” production, this time under Anne Azéma’s direction, returns to Boston on October 27!

We are delighted to announce the FIRST Camerata album available from us as a digital download. It’s the beloved “New Britain” program, originally an Erato best-seller, then a Warner Classics catalog item. You may purchase individual tracks (starting price: 29 cents), or download the entire album for a very reasonable amount.
Our goal is to make the best of Camerata’s distinguished earlier recordings available to old friends and new listeners alike, using the latest and most convenient means of distribution, and always maintaining these innovative creations in the ongoing flow of the early music scene.

“On the eve of Easter, several dozen would-be listeners took numbers and waited in a line outside the sold-out St. John’s Chapel of the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge in hopes of snagging a ticket for work first heard about 650 years ago. ”
That’s how the Boston Musical Intelligencer described the scene at Camerata’s final season concert, last March.
But take heart! You can easily avoid being left out in the cold next season! And you can even save money in the process! All you need to do is to subscribe now to Camerata’s 2013-2014 intown season. You’ll get preferred seating, a discounted price, love from all of us, and, of course, the most beautiful early music this side of the pearly gates.
