Winter Sparks (Chicago)
from Bach & Vivaldi
February 3 – February 4, 2026
In this cozy winter program, Apollo’s Fire musicians set sparks flying in virtuoso works of J.S. Bach, Telemann, Vivaldi, and more. Flautist Kathie Stewart takes the spotlight in a chamber performance of Bach’s brilliant Orchestral Suite (Ouverture) No. 2, while Debra Nagy steals the thunder in a lively Vivaldi oboe concerto. Violinist Alan Choo and viola da gambist HyunKun Cho face off in Marais’ Sonnerie, an imaginative showpiece imitating the sounds of bells from a famous church in Paris.
