This world-class baroque chamber ensemble follows up on its beloved 2024 series debut with a free concert inviting us to the baroque era\, in which the trio Sonata was the most popular chamber music formation. \; &ldquo\;A trio sonata soiré\;e&rdquo\; will spotlight examples by famous composers such as Bach and Telemann\, alongside some unjustly neglected Baroque masters\, illustrating the immense expressive range and creativity of this \;repertoire.
\n\nWith just a few strokes of the two violins and cello bows and animation of the harpsichord&rsquo\;s keys\, Le Consort will transport you from the Venice of Albinoni and Gentili to the Naples of Porpora\, with a visit to Telemann and Bach in Germany. The program concludes with a magnificent setting of &ldquo\;Follia\,&rdquo\; the era&rsquo\;s most recognizable melody\, and one which still resonates today. A great journey awaits \;you!
\n\nOffered with free admission as a gift to our community\, is made possible by the Sunderman Family Concert Endowment Fund\, in memory of Dr. F. William Sunderman Jr. and Dr. Carolyn Reynolds Sunderman. For over a decade\, this fund has allowed the Performing Arts Series to present a free world-class string concert each \;season.
