About this Event
A Phoenix Reborn: A concert of previously unedited music for Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz's Loa 380.
This event features "Al feliz natalicio" ("Praise to the fortunate birth"), anonymous court music from 18th century Spain that includes fragments of Mexican poet and nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz's Loa 380. Finley discovered the manuscript in Spain in 2018, and her subsequent transcription has led to this, its first performance in over 200 years.
Featuring members of the Piedmont Singers of Central Virginia, Jenny Edenborn (vioin), Susannah Livingston (violin), Brady Lanier (cello) and Valentina Sorbera (harpsichord).
Presentation by Dr. Sarah Finley, Department of Modern and Classical Language and Literatures. Responses by Spanish majors with the guidance of Dr. Elaine Miller.
