Baroque music for bagpipes with Dick Hensold and Maria Jette

August 24, 2025 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Musette Mania, or Dronology 101: Baroque chamber music for bagpipes, voice, and other instruments.  Plymouth Congregational Church chapel, 3:00 pm, Sunday August 24.  With Dick Hensold, Northumbrian smallpipes, soprano Maria Jette, harpsichordist Bruce Jacobs, violinist Joe Dolson, and flutist Anita Rieder.

The 4th-most-popular instrument in the 18th-century (by numbers of publications—after keyboard, violin, and flute) was the French Baroque chamber bagpipe, then called the musette.  Hundreds of publications survive for this instrument, most of it chamber music by excellent composers unknown to modern audiences because they specialized in an instrument never heard today.

COST: Free, but with a suggested donation of $20, a portion of which will go to the Groveland Food Shelf.
