A BAROQUE CHRISTMAS
DEC 19 + 22
Overview
Nothing says Christmas like a beautiful package of Baroque musical jewels. Our astounding concertmaster Aisslinn Nosky directs music that will resound with vitality and joy, the cobwebs wiped away, when performed on the instruments the composers intended. Torelli’s ethereal Christmas Concerto and Biber’s joyful Mystery Sonata celebrating the birth of Jesus are jubilant music to brighten a wintery day and nourish your spirit all year long.
