Instrumentalists of Montreal’s Ensemble Caprice join 12 vocal soloists from the Theatre of Early Music to perform Handel’s Funeral Anthem for Queen Caroline and Vivaldi’s Concertos and Psalms. Handel’s piece was first performed at the funeral of the Queen at Westminster Abbey on December 17, 1737. Queen Caroline was the consort of George II of Great Britain and had been friend and patron to Handel for more than 30 years when she died.
