Abendmusik – Past Concerts
Abendmusik, New York's Early Music String Band, showcases the rarely-performed repertoire of the late 16th and 17th Centuries composed for string consort. The term "Abendmusik" refers to the free concert series established by the organist Franz Tunder in Lübeck churches in the 17th Century. It was cultivated further by North German composer Dieterich Buxtehude in the early 18th Century. Historically, Abendmusik programs featured sacred and secular vocal and instrumental solo and chamber works, as well as solo organ. The series became so popular, as a result of the free admission and the featured compositions, that it grew into a respectable cultural institution.
