For the European Day of Early Music 2021, East Cork Early Music Festival and Nano Nagle Place continue the journey through some of the most iconic and emotive works in the seventeenth-century repertoire – Heinrich Biber’s Mystery Sonatas. Biber’s writing, with the violin in array of different scordatura tunings, is an evocative and visceral depiction of an intensely human story.
Sonata No. 6 ‘The Agony in the Garden’
Sonata No. 7 ‘The Scourging’
Sonata No. 8 ‘The Crowning with Thorns’
Sonata No. 9 ‘The Carrying of the Cross’
Sonata No. 10 ‘The Crucifixion’

East Cork Early Music Festival is grateful to the Arts Council for their support of this work through the Irish Early Music Network’s Capacity Building Scheme work.

We are ever grateful to Nano Nagle Place for their partnership, support and generous hosting of our work.
