VIRTUOSO BACH & VIVALDI
March 18March 22, 2022
Apollo’s Fire and Jeannette Sorrell set sparks flying in this program that heads to Carnegie Hall following local performances.  Bach’s beloved Brandenburg Concerto no. 3 meets Vivaldi’s Concerto in A Minor for Two Violins, featuring Olivier Brault and Susanna P. Gilmore.  In Vivaldi’s fiery Concerto for Two Cellos, cellists René Schiffer and Mimé Brinkmann show why AF thinks of Vivaldi as the “rock-n-roll composer of the 18th century.”

Choose your version!  On Mar. 19-20, the program includes selections from Bach’s Orchestral Suite no. 2 & 3.  On Mar. 18 and 22, Spanish violinist Francisco Fullana performs Bach’s extraordinary Violin Concerto in D Minor.

 

PRE CONCERT TALK –  with violinist Andrew Fouts, 1 hour before each concert.
