Bach: The Complete Violin & Continuo

Nicholas DiEugenio and Jeffrey Grossman present J.S. Bach’s two sonatas and fugue for violin and continuo, surrounded by works by Bach’s contemporaries. Often overlooked by performers, the two sonatas, gems of the chamber music repertoire, highlight multiple facets of his musical personality—sweet and joyful (the G major sonata) vs. dark and unsettled (the E minor sonata). This program is the perfect complement to the November 10 concert of Bach’s six sonatas for violin and obbligato harpsichord.

Hearing Nationalism

What does it mean to be a German, French, or Italian composer? In the 18th century, as national identity became more defined, composers grappled with that question, expressing their emerging national styles while also freely borrowing from others. This cosmopolitan program of Corelli, Telemann, Couperin, Muffat, Boyce, Royer, and Handel brings to life an enchanting diversity of styles.

Via Amsterdam: Musical Immigration

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Amsterdam was a thriving musical “port city”—one of the few places composers sent their precious manuscripts to be published, and from there, disseminated across Europe. In this concert, the Sebastians explore chamber music by Locatelli, who made Amsterdam his home, and his Italian compatriots who published there: Corelli, Mossi, Somis, Vivaldi, and Lully.

Our trumpet soloist John Thiessen was described by The New York Times as “the gold standard of Baroque trumpet playing in this country.” We’re thrilled to have John join our ensemble of exquisite soloists, which includes Priscilla Herreid, Meg Owens, David Ross, and others.

Andy Akiho and the Sebastians

This intriguing double bill juxtaposes music by the dynamic young composer Andy Akiho with a set of baroque masterpieces performed by the Sebastians. The piquant counterpoint of such works as Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3, which anchors the Sebastians’ program, is echoed by the keen sense of line in Akiho’s masterful LIgNEouS for string quartet and marimba. Akiho’s music, praised by the Times as “mold-breaking” and “vital,” features a cadre of today’s finest chamber musicians.
