Pacem in Terris hosts its first concert of the season on July 14

WARWICK — On Sunday, July 14, at 5 p.m., Pacem in Terris will feature flutist Albert Brouwer, cellist Ted Mook and harpsichordist Gregory Hayes in a wide-ranging program of works from the Baroque era and beyond.

All three performers have played at Pacem many times in the past. They will convene to play solo and trio sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, Handel, Geminiani, and Telemann, along with brief keyboard fantasias by Sweelinck and Morley and American contemporary composer Ellen Taafe Zwilich.

Flutist
Originally from the Netherlands, Brouwer is the principal flutist in the Springfield Symphony Orchestra in Massachusetts, the Vermont Symphony Orchestra and the Orchestre Symphonique de Drummondville in Quebec. He also is a member of the Albany Symphony Orchestra.

Cellist
Mook has been an active proponent of new music, particularly microtonal music since 1980. A graduate of the Boston University School of Music, he became a member of Dinosaur Annex and performed with several other ensembles in the Boston area before moving to New York City in 1983. Mook has played new music at the Library of Congress, the American Academy in Rome, the venerable Monday Evening Concerts at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, The Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Ijsbreker in Amsterdam.

Harpsichordist
Hayes is a busy chamber and orchestral musician, playing various keyboards with the Albany, Vermont, and Springfield Symphony Orchestras. He has participated often in the New England Bach Festival and on the Mohawk Trail Concerts series. Last season he and Brouwer performed all of the Bach works for flute and keyboard in concerts in Northampton, Mass., and Hanover, N.H.
