New York City classical concerts you\u2019d be an utter buffoonish fool to miss is back this week. The week of April 14th has something to titillate everyone\u2019s ears: old music, new music, sexy music, beloved classics and unloved premiers. Let us proceed to get cultured:<\/p>\n

1. MONDAY: The Ghostlight Chorus and the Madrigalchor of Munich<\/h4>\n

If you\u2019re feeling down because you weren\u2019t invited to a single passover seder this year despite having lots of Jewish friends and generally respectable dinner party poise (…not bitter), then let the pride of New York\u2019s choral scene, Ghostlight, together with eminent guests the Madrigalchor of Munich lift your spirits. The combined forces will perform German, English and American repertoire, with a generous helping of overtone singing, which you would truly, truly be a fool to miss.<\/p>\n

When: <\/strong>Monday, April 14th, 8pm
\nWhere:<\/strong> St. Ignatius of Antioch<\/a>
\nTickets:<\/strong> $15 in advance<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Magicalchor<\/p>\n

2. TUESDAY: L\u2019Opera Burlesque<\/h4>\n

\u201cA fantasy of operatic beauty and neo-classical burlesque incorporating the art of aerial,\u201d the foolishness required to miss L\u2019Opera is nearly inconceivable to us. There will also be a magician.<\/p>\n

When: <\/strong>Tuesday, April 15, 9pm
\nWhere:<\/strong> Duane Park<\/a>
\nTickets:<\/strong> Free with dinner or drinks!<\/p>\n

3. WEDNESDAY: The MATA festival<\/h4>\n

MATA\u2019s slogan \u201cYoung composers\u2014now!\u201d takes on a literal dimension throughout the week, as the the MATA Festival presents a series of concerts and discussions highlighting the work of young composers\u2026now. Wednesday\u2019s peformance, \u201cBetween Noise and Silence\u201d features six of today\u2019s major rising noise and\/or silence talents, with a freshly commissioned work by Japanese composer Hikari Kiyama. Very very foolish to miss this one.<\/p>\n

When:<\/strong> Wednesday, April 16, 8pm
\nWhere:<\/strong> The Kitchen<\/a>
\nTickets:<\/strong> $20 adults \/ $15 students<\/a><\/p>\n

4. THURSDAY: Bach, Revisited<\/h4>\n

So here\u2019s an interesting one. If you\u2019re familiar with how music performance works, you\u2019ll know that a composition is usually played from beginning to end in a concert. For this one though, esteemed composer and concert curator Joan Tower is splicing in her own works between movements of Bach\u2019s Brandenburg Concerto No. 5. Consequently, Bach, Revisited would be very foolish to miss indeed.<\/p>\n

When:<\/strong> Thursday, April 17, 8pm
\nWhere: <\/strong>Miller Theatre<\/a> at Columbia University
\nTickets:<\/strong> $25-$35<\/a><\/p>\n

5. SATURDAY: Pomerium\u2014Passion and Resurrection Motets of the Renaissance<\/h4>\n

Medieval and Renaissance history is trending this spring, and attending this concert at The Cloisters is a fantastic way to proclaim your musical and historical hipness. Afterwards you\u2019ll be able to be like \u201cthis weekend? Oh I just went to The Cloisters\u2014do you know The Cloisters?\u2014to hear this Renaissance motet concert. It was amaz<\/em>ing. Like really fabulous.\u201d Who wouldn\u2019t want to be able to say that? It would be straight-up foolish to turn down such an opportunity.<\/p>\n
