To mark its tenth anniversary, the LAC has chosen music that transcends time and continues to resonate with all generations.
Johann Sebastian Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos -masterpieces of freedom, invention, and virtuosity- will be performed byI Barocchisti under the direction of Maestro Diego Fasolis.
This exceptional project invites audiences on a musical and symbolicjourney from the profane to the sacred. The six concertos will be presentedover the course of a single day, in three evocative locations. At each venue,two concertos will be performed, thoughtfully paired according to theiraffinities in instrumentation, structure, or expressive intensity.
