[vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Presented by Cambridge Society for Early Music

With a musical approach that’s “distinctly sensualÔǪpliant, warm, and sweet” (New York Times), baroque oboist Debra Nagy expands the repertoire for her instrument with timeless songs whose emotionally-charged melodies stir the passions and inspire improvisation with echoes of jazz. Accompanied by a lush continuo band of viola da gamba, theorbo, and harpsichord, Nagy breathes new life into torch songs spanning the 17^th to 20^th Centuries in this program of original arrangements and improvisations. Music by Michel Lambert, Sebastian LeCamus, Jerome Kern, Nina Simone, and more.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_fade” interval=”3″ images=”16170,16144,16299″ onclick=”link_image” custom_links_target=”_self” column_number=”2″ grayscale=”no” choose_frame=”default”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
