The trio has recently returned from a 12city, 5-country tour of the Far East, where it performed in venues as diverse as the prestigious Jakarta International Festival and the remote Temburong district of Brunei.
For its concert in Washington, the trio will perform an eclectic mix of secular, and relgious songs, as well as dances, and instrumental pieces ranging from 13th century Spain and 18th century England to 20th century America. Critic Don MacLean of the Washington Post summed it up by saying, “for those willing to expand the notion of ‘folk music’ to include folks from any place and any time, Hesperus is highly recommended.”
Hesperus records on the Golden Apple label, a production company they started in 1989. Their recordings on Golden Apple include “Baroque Recorder Concerti,” “American Roots,” “Spain in the New World,” and “For No Good Reason at All.”
“The Smithsonian at Little Washington” series will conclude on May 1 with The American Song Company’s performance of music by Rodgers and Hammerstein.
