About This Event

The cavernous Royal Albert Hall auditorium is an ideal space to explore the clean harmonies and the decorative melodies of the Baroque concerto. Period-instrument ensemble the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment is joined by leading violinist Nicola Benedetti and partnered with members of the orchestra to perform two-violin concertos by Vivaldi and Bach 鈥� Bach鈥檚 concerto being composed following a study of Vivaldi.

In addition to one of only three concertos Vivaldi wrote for two oboes, we hear Concerti grossi by Handel (borrowing material from his own Brockes Passion) and Newcastle-born Charles Avison responding to the Italian style made fashionable in England by Alessandro Scarlatti.

Live on 成人快手 Radio 3 & on 成人快手 Four at 8.00pm
