Black Tulip Period Instrumental Ensemble

Black Tulip is a multinational ensemble featuring Josefien Stoppelenburg, soprano from the Netherlands, Mirja Lorenz, recorders from Germany, Phillip Serna, violas da gamba from the United States and Joel Spears, lutes and theorbo also from the US. Interdisciplinary by nature, Black Tulip’s innovative outside of the box programming immerses audiences in vivid and dynamic multi media experiences. Black Tulip often combines dramatic cantatas and songs for solo voice and obbligato instruments with virtuosic instrumental works for recorders, viols, lutes and theorbo alongside history lectures incorporating projected artwork to depict the complex cultural lives of composers and their 17th and 18th century audiences.
