Going for Baroque

Though the annual Baroque Music Festival of Corona del Mar doesn't take place until June, it held its Winter Musicale concert yesterday at St. Mark Presbyterian Church in Newport Beach, featuring tenor Jonathan Mack accompanied by Baroque's artistic director Burton Karson on piano in the Schubert song cycle entitled Die Schone Mullerin (The Beautiful Maid of the Mill)--a Romantic, not a Baroque, piece, of course. This appreciation event enjoyed an appreciative audience of loyal supporters who will be back for its concerts at St. Mark, at St. Michael and All Angels, and at the Sherman Library and Gardens.
