Experience masterpieces from composers such as Vivaldi and the Bach family. We hear all of the major Baroque styles, from dramatic opera overtures to masterful concertos. With BAGS and artistic director Terje Skomedal.
The elegance of Baroque truly glows, especially with BAGS on stage. Here, they present a programme that reflects the diversity and evolution of the era, and that moves freely between Italian shimmer and German precision.
With works by Durante and Vivaldi and two generations of Bach, they capture the Baroque style ideals – from dramatic opera overtures to masterful concertos and the symphonic form. The artistic director is Terje Skomedal, violinist in the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra.
Francesco Durante represents the passionate Neapolitan tradition, while Vivaldi’s Double Concerto in G Major illuminates the vitality of the Italian soloist concerto.
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach pulled out the stops even more than his father, and was a central figure of the “sensitive style”, which emphasised the emotional experience of music. This can be heard in the Symphony in A Major.
The concert also includes excerpts from one of father Johann Sebastian Bach’s beloved violin sonatas. We hear both the adagio and fugue from the brilliant sonata no. 3, in a unique arrangement by Terje Skomedal.
