Concert is one hour without intermission, free to attend and open to all ages*, held in the church Sanctuary. RSVP to receive an event reminder. Presented and performed by LA's community baroque orchestra.When we think of "Baroque" music, many of us think Germany, Italy, France, England… and then the list starts to trail off. This often has much more to do with modern political history and scholarship than the richness of the repertories. Thankfully, this is starting to change, and this concert #earlymusicLAB is digging into delicious music by Czech composers and the patronage of the Prague Court. Another theme of this program is how composers processed life's challenges through music. This area of the world had suffered greatly from plague and the 30 Years’ War. And yet, Zelenka and Biber wrote pieces that would have brought these topics into a salon-type setting.
