Baroque Connections, Chamber Concert

Join us for a vibrant array of recently created chamber music by diverse living composers that all have one thing in common: each piece has a Baroque connection! Performed by five BCOC string players, plus artist-in-residence Vijay Chalasani on viola and guest composer Nicola Canzano on harpsichord. Music by present-day composers Caroline Shaw, Anna Clyne, Nicolas Lell Benevides, Adolphus Hailstork, Kenji Bunch, and Nicola Canzano.

This evening's luminous program begins with two exciting works by CPE Bach -- a viola concerto and a sinfonia.

The program concludes with the world premiere of Canzano's Concerto Grosso in A major, composed especially for the Baroque Chamber Orchestra of Colorado.
