Tacoma a kickoff point for early music concerts this spring: Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:47:54 PST - In the calm, resonant space at Christ Episcopal Church in Tacoma, a low voice rises out of nothing. Dusky purple, it weaves haunting lines at the very edge of hearing, joined swiftly by two others in wistful, ornamented harmony. It’s a flute, but a very unusual one: a copy of one played by Jacques Hotteterre, court musician to Louis XIV of France, and its carved ebony and ivory joints produce lush sounds more than two half-tones below modern pitch. The flute, the pitch, the other instruments and the baroque music played Monday night at Christ Episcopal are part of the four-month-long Salish Sea Early Music Festival, which includes concerts all around Puget Sound, with Tacoma as the starting point.
