The timbre variety of a great baroque orchestra will be expressed in what will be the first collaboration of the Seville Baroque Orchestra with Jonathan Cohen, founder and director of the Arcangelo ensemble. For this, four of the most exalted masters of the 18th century have been chosen. From one of Handel's Water Music suites to those taken from Rameau's operas, passing through Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 1 or Zelenka's superb piece (so little frequented, due to its difficulty!), the concert is presented as a true virtuosic tour de force and as a resounding triumph of colour and melody.
