Salut! Baroque is offering one double pass to our season launch in Sydney. To go in the running to win simply email hornphilippa@gmail.com with the subject ‘MusictoCelebrateSyd’.
A feast of glorious music launches our celebratory year, with compositions spanning 400 years. Creativity bloomed in the baroque period as concerts moved away from the confines of the church and royal courts into the public realm, with different styles becoming the ‘pop music’ of the day. Music became more accessible through printing, creating an independent market for enterprising composers, performers, publishers and promoters alike. Our program will include some of The Four Seasons by Giovanni Guido, written around eight years before Vivaldi’s most famous composition, and Jan Rokyta’s enchanting Balkanology, written 300 years later and inspired by traditional Romanian and Turkish music with its complex rhythms and harmonies.
Sydney: Sunday 2 February 2025, 3.00pm, Music Workshop, Sydney Conservatorium of Music
