See Jonathan Dimmock Live

Jonathan Dimmock and his AVE ensemble are going to have a busy summer, so you'll have plenty of chances to see them live! Today we thought we would highlight a couple that are coming up soon!

The 10th edition of the Berkeley Festival & Exhibition, running June 6-13 will host Jonathan Dimmock and the AVE ensemble. Check out the details from the Contra Costa Times:

Also being presented as "Main Stage" artists are two well-known Bay Area ensembles — Warren Stewart's Magnificat vocal and instrumental group and Jonathan Dimmock's AVE chorale. For the festival's final concert, all of the above-mentioned artists, plus the string ensemble Archetti, gather in First Congregational Church at 4 p.m. June 13 for a "Vespers in Venice from Monteverdi to Vivaldi" program that will include a performance of the latter's "Magnificat" canticle. Check out the full lineup of the festival on the Contra Costa Times website
