North Star Baroque’s second concert of the season will feature Bach’s beloved Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 and a Vivaldi concerto for sopranino recorder with Venezuelan recorder virtuoso Aldo Abreu. The Brandenburg is a triple concerto for flute, violin and harpsichord soloists, with a famous harpsichord cadenza that was no doubt played by Bach himself. The Vivaldi has a very high solo part for which modern orchestras often use a piccolo, but our performance will feature Vivaldi’s original instrument, a sopranino recorder. Also on the program will be sparkling works by Purcell and Handel.
