Creative Cuts - Baroque Brilliance

The Pacific Chamber Players are presenting their ever-popular Baroque Brilliance concert, at 2.30pm on Saturday, November 23, at Eudlo Hall and Sunday, November 24 at Cooroy Memorial Hall. 

This year’s programme showcases accomplished Daniel Kossov performing Bach’s Violin Concerto in A minor BWV 1041. 

Neil Heymink, a favourite of the Players’ patrons, will be featured in Vivaldi’s vital Bassoon Concerto in A minor, RV 497: a vigorous work played with aplomb. 

Telemann is represented with his Overture Suite for Oboe, Trumpet and Orchestra, TWV55:D1. This is an appealing work that highlights the regal nature of the solo instruments. 

And for something light, movements from Purcell’s Fairy Queen. The programme’s wild card is CPE Bach’s Symphony in C, H659: an energetic work of unusual inventions and abrupt changes of mood. 

Tickets are $35, concessions $32, school students $12, available online at pacifichcamberplayers.com or cash at the door.
