Fortissimo, Pianissimo and ‘Moore’ for Annisquam Series
Two concerts that uniquely command a listener’s sensibilities are offered at the Annisquam Village Church this November. On a day when the clocks are turned back, one may go back farther…all the way to the Renaissance and Baroque. Early music finds an ideal acoustic at the Village Church when Kevin Birch performs on Sunday, November 6 at 3 PM. In addition to the resident instruments at the Village Church, Birch brings his own instrument, based on a late 18th c. clavichord of Manuel Carmo (Portuguese), illustrating the qualities that make these keyboards the ‘instrument of choice’ for studying organ literature. The delicate sound produced by metal tangents lifting the strings from underneath is so intimate that one ‘leans in’ to hear its remarkable nuance above the clamors of modern life. Pairing this delicacy with the prodigious sounds of the King of Instruments, with early works that evolved into later ones, and with folk tunes that evolved into complex ones, Birch makes the case with all four of the Adams instruments: the Great Organ, chamber organ, harpsichord, clavichord, and even ….shhh!…a ‘mystery instrument.’ Birch introduced them all in 2016 as part of Adams’s Cape Ann Museum exhibit “Voicing the Woods.”
Birch holds a Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of Iowa with previous studies at the Sweelinck Conservatory (Amsterdam) and at New England Conservatory with Yuko Hayashi, graduating with Distinction in Performance. He serves as Organist and Director of Music at St. John’s Catholic Church in Bangor, Maine, as Executive Director of St. John’s Organ Society and as a member of the music faculty at the University of Maine School of the Performing Arts.
This performance includes works of Frescobaldi, Dandrieu, Byrd, and Bach. The church is well ventilated and spacious; donations are gratefully accepted to support the music program and the care of these instruments.
A “Listening Party” brings the audience to latter-day music on Sunday, November 20 at 3 PM, featuring AVC’s Artist-in-Residence, Violinist Scott Moore. Commissioned to write a score for the Louisville Ballet’s “As You Like It,” Moore provides an inside look at the processes that produce such a large work. Answering the form and gestures of Shakespeare’s beloved play, Moore’s collaborations with dance, choreography, and design result in fresh interpretations of Arden Forest, the lovely Rosalind, the pastoral surroundings and characters, and the jests of Touchstone. Premiered in August, the ballet preceded Moore’s appointment as Concertmaster of the Cape Ann Symphony. Recordings from the rehearsals and performance enhance Moore’s chronicle.

Alert-Volunteer opportunity!
This Saturday morning a bunch of good citizens are meeting in front of Captain Hooks (406 Washington Street) at 9 am to paint the rails around the Mill River and Mill Pond. My friend Josh Arnold who has been having a positive impact on our community for decades has organized this and is picking up supplies from the City of Gloucester Public Works. He invited me and I asked if there is room for additional volunteers.
We will be there for a few hours and any amount of time you can volunteer will make a difference. Paint and brushes will be provided but feel free to bring your favorite brush in case we have more volunteers than paint brushes.
The expectation is that this will need both Saturday and Sunday. I’m a little competitive, so I’m hopeful enough people will pitch in and help so that we can accomplish this in one morning. We got 84 people for the downtown cleanup we organized last month, can we do it again?
If you can make it, feel free to just show up Saturday between 9 am and 12 pm. And if you can take a few moments to share this post I’d appreciate that as well.
Holidays approaching fast. Deadline for Christmas orders November 15th.
Again and Again creates unique custom gifts. Message me with your ideas and order.
Wishing you all happy healthy beautiful holidays!!♥️

Give us an hour or two to haul the dories and bring them to Erik’s property for the winter. Anyone with an available trailer please let me know. If we have two trailers and a bunch of help we can move the dories in two quick moves. Please lend a hand this Saturday.
Hope to see you all there!

COMPLIMENTARY
FINE WINE TASTING @ SAVOUR WITH CHELSEA FROM VINEYARD ROAD WINES
Vineyard Road is an importer and distributor of fine wines from around the world, based in Framingham, Massachusetts. Since 2000, they have offered high-quality and high-value wines that reflect their soils of origin. Some of their estates have been around for only 5 years. Others have been making wine for more than 500. Vineyard Road specializes in small production and artisanal producers who work in concert with the land.
WINES
Domaine Guilberteau Rosé 2021, Saumur, France
Varietal: Cabernet Franc Alc. 12%
This is the first vintage for this rosé from Romain Guiberteau. Guiberteau has become one of the great signatures of the Saumurois. He operates 14.5 hectares of vines grown organically, on clay-limestone soils in the Bizay and Brézé sectors, on deeper soils in the Montreuil-Bellay region. From the estate cuvée to the plot cuvées, the work is meticulous. This rosé has a lovely salmon pink color. The elegant nose has aromas of citrus fruits, fresh grapefruit, and white pepper. In the mouth a beautiful mineral tension gives way to a fleshy, dense juiciness..
Pairs well with niçoise salad, soft cheeses, salmon. $22.99
Elektrisch Riesling 2020, Rheinhessen, Germany
Varietal: Riesling Alc. 10%
The Rheinhessen region has gone from being derided as the land of Liebfraumilch to being the white-hot, super star of Germany. Florian Fauth, the winemaker of Elektrisch, happens to be the brother-in-law of Klaus Peter Keller, one of the pioneers who helped make the Rheinhessen one of the superstar regions of Germany. It is a delicate art to bring out the right amounts of sweetness and acidity in Riesling, and Fauth is able to do it, while crafting wines that are harmonious and vibrant. Mouthwatering acidity, citrusy aromatics, and flavors of granny smith apples will make you appreciate a wine that is sweet in the right way. This is an impressive wine that shows incredible value. This biodynamic, fruit-forward halbtrocken (off-dry) Riesling Kabinett from the Rheinhessen is juicy and thirst-quenching, showing tart citrus and wet stones, marked by lively acidity.
Pairs well with sushi, Asian food, and salty blue cheese, like Stilton. $17.99
Domaine Grégoire Hoppenot Fleurie Indigene 2020, Beaujolais, France
Varietal: Gamay Alc. 13.5%
Named “Discovery of the Year” in 2021’s Revue des Vins de France, Grégoire Hoppenot went to Fleurie following two years as director of the Chapoutier-owned Maison Trénel in Beaujolais. Grégoire has leased nine hectares, along with a small plot in Morgon. He describes his winemaking as “intuitive,” using indigenous yeasts and low sulphur, and practices organic farming in the vineyard. Fleurie Indigene is a blend of young vines from two parcels, Les Roches and Les Garants. It is the first of the Hoppenot wines to be organically certified. Ruby red in colour, Indigène displays elegant notes of raspberry, cherry, and dried rose. It is well-structured on the palate with bright red fruit flavors, lifted acidity, and polished tannins.
Pairs well with paté, brie and camembert, turkey (an excellent Thanksgiving wine). $25.99
Pra Morandina Valpolicella 2020, Veneto, Italy
Varietal: Corvina Alc. 12.5%
Graziano Pra followed his father and grandfather into the wine business, studying oenology, and taking over the family winery in Soave in the early 1980s. After searching for the right site, Graziano began the new millennium by fulfilling his long-held ambition and purchasing a 13-hectare vineyard near Mezzane in eastern Valpolicella. He farms the land organically, using no chemical treatments. During September and October, the grapes are harvested, de-stemmed and pressed, and left to macerate and ferment for 15 days in vertical vats. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in stainless steel followed by 3 to 6 months’ maturation in Allier oak casks. This is a vibrant, fragrant Valpolicella with intensity yet delicacy from the low yields of the Morandina vineyards. Bright red berry aromas with notes of wild thyme lead to a fresh, sappy wine with layers of raspberry leaf, licorice and cherry. It has a juicy, fresh yet silky mouthfeel and a balancing acidity that combine for a long finish.
Pairs well with grilled vegetables, seafood stew, risotto, roasted chicken. $24.99
Trediberri Langhe Nebbiolo 2021, Piedmont, Italy
Varietal: Nebbiolo Alc. 14%
Trediberri prides itself on its upstart status. In 2007, Nicola Oberto, along with his father, Federico (former cellar master for La Morra’s Renato Ratti), and their close friend Vladimiro Rambaldi, acquired 12.5 acres exclusively for the production of Barolo in the Piedmont town of Berri. The Trediberri, or “three of Berri,” was born. Langhe Nebbiolo is not only one of the greatest values in Piedmont, but often serves as a barometer for the seriousness and talents of a producer. Trediberri’s is one of the best available. The wine showcases the Nebbiolo grape with its classic aromas of forest berry, white licorice, and dusty earth. On the palate, there are complex layers of bright rose petals and red cherries. Firm structure and bright acidity make this a very food friendly wine.
Pairs well with charcuterie, a rich ragu, pizza. $22.99
And don’t forget to check out what’s new in our beer case. We have a malty Oktoberfest from the von Trapp brewery and the wonderfully dark but slightly hoppy Robust Porter from Smuttynose.
