Based on the orchestras of Baroque Italy, the 15-piece Europa Galante uses period instruments to bring the richness of a 17th-century string ensemble to life. Under the direction of master violinist Fabio Biondi, the orchestra closes its program with one of its specialties—Vivaldi’s ageless Four Seasons, never performed during the 28-year history of the Early Music Series.
Telemann: Ouverture à quatre
Telemann: Concerto per flauto, violino, cello ed archi
Sammartini: Sinfonia JC57
Vivaldi: The Four Seasons
