The English Concert
Rachel Podger (violin/director)
An evening in the company of three great masters of the Baroque period, performed by two great exponents of its music from our own day: The English Concert continues its series of reunions and invites the British violinist and former leader, Rachel Podger, to direct the orchestra. Together they perform violin concertos by Bach and Vivaldi - whose energetic and lively concerto-style Bach made very much his own. Alongside these, a favourite Brandenburg Concerto and one by Vivaldi which may have influenced it, and an instrumental sonata by Bach's friend - and Godfather to his son - Georg Philipp Telemann.
