Emiliano Gonzalez Toro, director & tenor
Zachary Wilder, tenor
Boston Early Music Festival
Since 1980, the Boston Early Music Festival has been at the forefront for excellence in the field of Early Music throughout North America. BEMF began co-presenting concerts and opera productions at the Morgan in 2006.
Join a duo of ideally matched tenors as Emiliano Gonzalez Toro and Zachary Wilder bring their racy and voluptuous timbres to some of the most beautiful songs and duets of the early Italian Baroque repertoire. Making their BEMF début in collaboration with these stunning singers will be eight instrumentalists from I Gemelli, an ensemble that specializes in 17th-century vocal repertoire and was founded in 2018 by Toro and soprano Mathilde Étienne. Voices and instruments engage in a lively and richly contrasting dialogue in this dazzlingly varied program featuring music by d’India, Frescobaldi, Calestani, Marini, Castello, and many others.
The exhibition Spirit and Invention: Drawings by Giambattista and Domenico Tiepolo will be open at 6:30 PM for concert attendees.
