This year we begin with a grand spectacle! Combine musical hits from some of the most successful programs we did in the past ("Arias for Farinelli," "La Follia," "Baroque Favorites"), add several more masterpieces by great composers such as Bach and Handel, and you will get a program that simply cannot fail. No wonder why we decided to call it "BEST OF BAROQUE". Come and enjoy over one hour of the best music ever written for instruments and vocal soloists. Hear great Farinelli and incredible Cuzoni in arias from Handel's best operas, as well as famous arias and duets from the sacred repertoire by Bach and Handel. This is the concert you don't want to miss!
