That’s right, we’re taking a break from our namesake... for one concert! Join us for this exhilarating finale showcasing the brilliance of the concerto grosso. Before there were Brandenburgs, Corelli and Vivaldi dazzled audiences with the vibrant energy and intricate interplay of these masterworks, brought to life here by over a dozen baroque specialists.
