Sining the institution of Peter at the helm of the Church: as a stone on top of the earthly body of the Lord, the Church, but himself under the Capstone of its Heavenly Body: the Eternal Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ, Stone above the stone...

William Byrd (1540–1623): Bow thine ear, O Lord
Hudson Baroque
Performed live, August 22nd, 2025 at The Caboose, Hudson

Bow thine ear, O Lord, and hear us:
Let thine anger cease from us.
Sion is wasted and brought low,
Jerusalem desolate and void.

Hudson Baroque performs Byrd’s Bow thine ear, O Lord

Belgium-based composer of vocal and instrumental/symphonic (sacred) music in the tonal and polyphonic tradition. : psalms, cantata’s, passions, oratorio’s, symphonies, chamber music and vocal impro...

Dimitri is a composer who has dedicated himself to uplift and delight hearts, souls and minds through the reaffirmed beauty of melody, harmony, polyphony and counterpoint, and through the innumerable colors of instruments and human voices.

Dinoza is a Tbilisi-based experimental artist weaving poetry, ambient sound, and visual art into one immersive experience. Rooted in Georgian tradition and inspired by global fusion, his work bridges ancestral memory and modern sensibility.

His debut single “Deda Mdinare” (Mother River) is a meditative sound journey, blending folk rhythms, jazz textures, and subtle electronic atmospheres into a ritual of sound.

Dinoza’s art is presence — where silence becomes rhythm and vision becomes verse.

Where passion, virtuosity, and historically informed performance practice foster a culture of excellence and goodwill.

Singinkuz's general MO is to jazz up folk songs and folk up jazz tunes with the desire to tickle the listeners' senses and possibly getting them singing along.  

On a more formal note, Andrea Kuzmich (singinkuz) is an award winning singer, a teacher, an ethnomusicologist, and composer/arranger. She has performed in and/or recorded with numerous artists, ensembles and choirs: from Whitney Smith’s Big Steam Band to the conventional SATB Choir of Toronto’s Trinity-St. Paul's United Church or the exquisite chamber style of the Aradia Ensemble; from the contemporary improvised new music provided for the soundtracks of The Witch and The Tall Grass or the backing vocals to Tanya Tagaq, to the ultra traditional Georgian and Ukrainian folk musics of Darbazi, ZARI, Ori Shalva, the Kosa Choir, Kalendar or Sing With Ukraine.

Throughlines is a surrender to the associations we hear, not the derivations we trace. A feeling not a knowing 〰️
