In contrast to our fall Vivaldissimo concert, this program offers a mix of instrumental and choral works presenting the range of Vivaldi’s genius. Instrumental works include a charming sinfonia, a sparkling concerto for trumpet, and—to complete the cycle begun in our fall concert in celebration of the 300th anniversary of the Four Seasons—the two remaining “seasons”: appropriately, “Spring” and “Summer”. Choral works include Vivaldi’s two most famous and beloved sacred works, Gloria and Magnificat, each a glorious hymn of praise that will lift your spirits. Don’t miss this fabulous conclusion to our Concert Season 38!
