Sémplice (pronounced SEM-plee-chay) is a Denver-based quartet specializing in the music of and around the baroque period.
The quartet, comprised of Miriam Rosenblum on recorder, Carla Sciaky on baroque violin, voice and tenor viol, Sarah Biber on cello and viola da gamba, and Ben Cohen on lute, baroque guitar, theorbo and harpsichord, got our chops in the early 2010s playing house concerts. Sémplice takes a welcoming, relaxed performance presentation wherever they perform. In place of wearing "concert black", distributing printed programs, and having austere silence between tunes, theiraudiences enjoy music delivered along with stories of the composers, the instruments, and the cultural context from which the music was created, including the occasional tasty tidbits that depict the baroque characters as the actual human beings that they were.
