EMS Artistic Director Gus Denhard shares an in-depth look at our artists, RUMBARROCO in The Boston Musical Intelligencer:

“…an unprecedented synthesis of European Renaissance and Baroque music with contemporary Latin American popular and folk music… it demonstrates more clearly and cogently than any lecture could how Latin American music itself has excitingly united African, Arabic, and European traditions.”

Remembering Stanley Ritchie (1935–2026), who passed away over the weekend. A recipient of Early Music America's Howard Mayer Brown Award for Lifetime Achievement in Early Music, Stanley came to Seattle in the 1970s, where he immersed himself in baroque performance practice and met his future wife, harpsichordist Elisabeth Wright. The two performed as a duo on Early Music Guild's first concerts and were among EMG's founding group of artists. Stanley and Elisabeth later moved to Indiana University's Early Music Institute, where many of today's Early Music Seattle artists studied with them — including Gus Denhard, Stef Creswell, Ingrid Matthews, Byron Schenkman, Rachell Ellen Wong, and many others.
