Praised for its “rich-textured, vibrant sound” and “hypnotic beauty,” the Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal has established a reputation as Montreal’s finest early music vocal ensemble. The SMAM has developed over the years a very flexible ensemble of singers, all remarkable for the clarity and purity of their voices, which are often accompanied by a group of musicians playing on period instruments. The Studio was founded in 1974 by the organist and harpsichordist Christopher Jackson. Since its very beginning, the Studio has brought more than 800 Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces before the public and continues to reveal and share emotional depth of this music.
The Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal and their director Christopher Jackson will present a program called The Earth Will Tremble. Since the dawn of time, building on the foundations of old superstitions and on all manner of false pretence, prophets of doom have predicted a variety of catastrophes: epidemics, floods, cosmic cataclysms, and seismic upheavals—with vast destruction as the end result. The selection of music performed spans the 15th to 18th centuries.
