Ensemble Lipzodes invites presenters and festivals to choose from a number
of presentation formats for Lipzodes’ programs for the 2008-2009 season. The programs are:
Music from 16th century Guatemala - Lipzodes' original program of music from the Lilly Library Mss.
Novenas for Winds - Spanish Renaissance Christmas Music
Music of Jewish and Muslim Spain - An innovative program combining Andalusian classical music and Christian and Jewish songs from the Cantigas de Santa Maria and from across Europe
Travels on paper and in sound - A program of music about distant lands and travels from ca. 1400-1700, first presented at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
Presentation formats include the following:

Lipzodes’ full lineup of 8 musicians (four instrumentalists and
four singers). The group is based in Bloomington, Indiana, USA.
- The 5
core members of Ensemble Lipzodes (four instrumentalists and one singer/percussionist),
which would be available to perform with a chamber choir from the presenter’s
area. This would include advance preparation by Ensemble Lipzodes of
the score materials, as well as rehearsals and coaching provided by
members of the ensemble for the combined choir. Ensemble Lipzodes would
provide a soloist for most vocal pieces, though there would be an opportunity
for the resident ensemble’s singers to perform a number of solo/duet
passages.
In addition to concert performances, the members of Ensemble Lipzodes are
also available to offer the following during the residency period:
- Coachings
and private lessons in the following: recorder, baroque oboe, shawm,
dulcian, historical bassoon and voice

experience that is sure to fascinate as well as delight the senses.
