Sinopse

I invited 4 and 20 strings to give a house concert WAY before COVID and all this stuff broke out. Because I was testing live-streaming (and now have great proficiency with it, but then was not so great), I missed all of the recorded concert and just have the end of the last piece, a passacaglia section of the Biber violin sonata No. 3, with Alexandra Calabro playing the vioin, Kevin Lubin the viola da gamba (he's also a talented harpsichordist), and Ryan Closs on Theorbo. I started with the interview I did with them afterwards and then go into the music. Here is their bio! No point in putting in the program as you only hear the VERY last part of it:4&20 Strings, Long Island's premier Baroque ensemble, was formed in 2019. The trio consists of violinist Alexandra Calabro, theorbist Ryan Closs, and harpsichordist/viola da gamba player Kevin Lubin. Garnering attention by programing concerts in both traditional and unique spaces, the overarching goal of 4&20 Strings is to bring early music to Long Island.
