Maggie Finnegan
Soprano
“...freshly captured here by the skilled American period-instrument forces of Boston Baroque under Martin Pearlman. The acoustic is resonant, the playing in the symphony is deft and lively.”
—The Observer
This program of Baroque sparklers is the perfect way to celebrate the end of one year, and to ring in the next. And what Baroque feast would be complete without a complimentary champagne toast and chocolates?
In addition to two Bach masterpieces—the Concerto in D for Three Violins and the Orchestral Suite No. 4 in D—hear soprano Maggie Finnegan in the glittering Vivaldi motet, “Nulla in mundo pax sincera.” The program also includes Corelli’s Concerto Grosso in F, No. 6 and a stunning French Baroque orchestral suite by Rameau.
Music Director Martin Pearlman conducts Boston Baroque’s orchestra.
Merry. Celebratory.
