Tafelmusik’s extraordinary musicians step into the spotlight
In this dynamic showcase of Tafelmusik’s artistry, Rachel Podger and members of the orchestra flex their musical muscles as soloists in a bouquet of concertos that highlight the violin, cello, recorder, oboe, and bassoon.
This program features peerless examples of baroque concertos, including Bach’s Concerto for violin and oboe in C Minor, Telemann’s Concerto for 3 violins in F Major, and Corelli’s Concerto grosso no. 1 in D Major. Tafelmusik’s vibrant colors combine in Vivaldi‘s vivacious Chamber Concerto in G Minor and two blockbuster concertos by Vivaldi shine the light on the orchestra’s bass-line players.
With this panoply of dazzling concertos we celebrate the inspiring musicians of Tafelmusik joining talents with Rachel, acclaimed for concertos “crackling with vitality and executed with consistent brilliance” (Gramophone).
