This program celebrates the vibrant world of Baroque chamber music and the close ties between J.S. Bach and Telemann – friends, colleagues, and creative giants. Bach’s Concerto for Violin and Oboe opens with expressive interplay, while Telemann’s Gulliver’s Travels brings Jonathan Swift’s satire to life with two violins. His concertos for flute, viola, and oboe d’amore – and for viola alone – highlight his flair for color and invention. C.P.E. Bach, son of J.S. and godson of Telemann, brings bold individuality to a trio that bridges generations.

The musicians performing the program are Marya Martin, flute; James Austin Smith; David McCarroll, violin; Kate Arndt, violin; Kevin Zhu, violin; Matthew Lipman, viola; Cong Wu, viola; Carter Brey, cello; Nina Bernat, bass; and Kenneth Weiss, harpsichord.
