James Tyler directs the USC Thornton Early Music Ensemble in a concert featuring music "all italiana" - music in the Italian style from the early to late Baroque period.
Under the direction of James Tyler, the Thornton Early Music Ensemble has been the early music ensemble-in-residence at the USC Thornton School of Music since 1987.
A consort of seven musicians at its inception, the ensemble’s personnel has increased threefold and its performances of large- and small-scale chamber repertories from the High Renaissance through the late Baroque era have been enthusiastically received by early music aficionados and general music-lovers alike.
As well as being masters and doctoral degree candidates at the USC Thornton School of Music, members of the early music ensemble populate some of L.A.’s best-known professional ensembles and are among its most gifted exponents of early repertories.
The Thornton Early Music Ensemble’s off-campus appearances have included performances in the U.K-L.A. Festival, the L. A. Bach Festival, the J. Paul Getty Museum Summer Music Festival, the Cal State Summer Arts Festival, and in concert series at UCLA, Occidental College, Chapman University, Pomona College, the Skirball Cultural Center, and many others.
