In this cozy winter program, nine Apollo’s Fire musicians set sparks flying in virtuoso works of J.S. Bach, Vivaldi, and more. Debra Nagy takes the spotlight in a lively Vivaldi oboe concerto, while Kathie Stewart and Alan Choo lead a fiery chamber performance of Bach’s Orchestral Suite no. 2. Cellist Sarah Stone steals the thunder in Marais’ famous Sonnerie de Sainte Geneviève, an imaginative showpiece evoking the sounds of church bells in Paris.

PRE-CONCERT CONVERSATION with oboist Debra Nagy, hosted by concertmaster Alan Choo, 1 hour before each performance.

On Friday night, enjoy light bites, “spark”ling beverages, and great conversation! Open to all.
