ALKEMIE & FRIENDS presents: Blood, Booze, & Betrayal - Music for and Extremely Broken Consort

Editor's note:

Alkemie exists to explore and share the life-affirming and alternative perspectives to be experienced in the sounds of centuries past. With the support of Early Music America, this concert represents the launch of an NYC-based initiative dubbed "Alkemie and Friends" - a series of informal, musically experimental, and multi-sensory concerts. This series is a forum for the ensemble to create programs that take advantage of the sonic possibilities that emerge when we collaborate with other experts in adjacent musical fields.
