ARTIST BIOS:

Adriana Zoppo performs on violin, viola, baroque violin, baroque viola and the unusual and rarely heard viola d’amore and appears frequently on the Glendale Noon Concerts series where she is director of its early music sub-series. In addition to performing in the string sections of symphony orchestras, chamber ensembles, early music groups and numerous other ensembles in the Southern California area, she also plays for motion pictures, television shows, solo artist recordings, Broadway musicals and live shows encompassing styles from classical to jazz. Zoppo performs and records with husband Frederic Michot under their label ilymusic.com.

 

Justin Haynes-Pilon has performed throughout North America on both baroque cello and viola da gamba. In California, he has performed with the LA Baroque Players, Musica Angelica, the American Contemporary Ballet, Opera Animata, and Opera Neo. Justin also has performed with many leading Canadian early music ensembles including Tafelmusik, Opera Atelier, and Les Voix Humaines, and appeared regularly as both soloist and continuo player with the Toronto Masque Theatre and the Toronto Consort. Justin first studied baroque cello and historical performance practice with Emily Walhout, Reinmar Seidler, Phoebe Carrai, Robert Mealy, and Robert Levin while an undergraduate at Harvard. After graduating, he went on to study viola da gamba with Philippe Pierlot at the Royal Dutch Conservatory in the Hague. Justin is currently an assistant professor of Classics at Georgetown University.  

 

 

PROGRAM NOTES:

These Duos are from a collection of music for viola d'amore probably from the Classic period (late 18th/early 19th century), housed at the Prague National Museum/ Czech Museum of Music and recently made available in modern transcription by Thomas Georgi. There are no composers names on the manuscripts and most likely they are the work of more than one person, but the musical style is consistent with that in vogue at the time in Vienna and other cities of the Austrian Empire.
