Ornate ornamentation, contrapuntal complexity, dazzling virtuosity—these traits epitomize the music of the Baroque. From the magical aura of Corelli’s Christmas Concerto, to Vivaldi’s imitation of birdcalls in “The Goldfinch,” to the paragon of Baroque msterworks, Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos Nos 4 and 5, this program of glittering gems is not to be missed.
