Concert.
Chatham Baroque with Irish flutist Chris Norman. $19 (half-price students). 8 p.m. Ramsey Hall. Sponsored by Performing Arts Center (Traditions Series). 542-4400.
Chatham Baroque and flutist Chris Norman will perform a program entitled “Reel of Tulloch: Baroque Music of Scotland and Ireland.”
Hailed by Pittsburgh magazine as “sexy, fun, killer musicians,” Chatham Baroque has joined forces with wood-flute virtuoso Chris Norman to create unique arrangements of Scottish and Irish folk tunes, highland dances and elegant serenatas (serenades). The “Reel of Tulloch,” which is also the title of Chatham Baroque’s fifth CD, has won praise from audiences and critics around the country. The Charleston Post and Courier commented, “Chatham Baroque jammed its way through a program of Scottish music. It was a gem of a performance,” and the New York Times made note of the group’s “colorful virtuosity.”
Chatham Baroque was honored by National Public Radio as best new classical artist of 1999, and its 1997 CD entitled The Scotch Humour was the first recording by an American ensemble to receive a five-star rating from Europe’s Goldberg magazine. The group is ensemble in residence at Chatham College and WQED in Pittsburgh and regularly tours throughout the United States and around the world.
Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Chris Norman has made a career of proving that the simple wooden flute is still the unsurpassed woodwind of passion, joy and subtlety. The Toronto Globe and Mail calls him “a flute superstar,” and the New Yorker magazine calls him “a flute player of spectacular and imaginative expression.” He has released five solo CDs, including Man with the Wooden Flute, which was on Billboard’s Top Crossover Albums chart for 12 weeks.
