Banquet of Baroque
Saturday, March 14, 2020
7:30 PM | Wilson Center ​

​Serving up music of Baroque masters Handel and Bach with a side order of selections from Italian and French composers.

This Masterworks concert will feature Bach's   Brandenburg Concerto No. 6. Bach's sonic imagination was seemingly limitless, and for this final concerto he chose to limit the work's instrumentation to strings and continuo, meaning that the only non-bowed instrument heard is the harpsichord.

Chamber Orchestra- All-Baroque Program
  • Bach:   Brandenburg Concerto No. 6 
    • ​Music is underwritten by Peter and Gaile Zack
  • Handel:   Concerto a Due Cori no. 1 in B-flat 
    • ​Music is underwritten by David Elsbree and Lorraine Gilmore
  • Rameau:   Entrée from Les Boréades 
  • Bach:   Suite no. 2 in B Minor 
  • Corelli:   Concerto Grosso Op. 6 no. 7
