The “perpetually fabulous” (Boston Globe) Canadian violinist Aisslinn Nosky returns to direct a program revealing the peaks and valleys of the human emotional landscape—from the wistful yearning of Locatelli’s Concerto grosso in C Minor to the buoyant cheer of Telemann’s Orchestral Suite in B-flat Major.

Vivaldi conjures up phantoms and dreamscapes in his evocative Concerto for bassoon “La Notte” (The Night), featuring Tafelmusik’s own Dominic Teresi, and a bold Overture by Fasch contrasts with a radiant Chaconne celebrating love from Marais’ Alcyone.

The grand finale of our journey through the gamut of baroque passions? Bach’s masterful Concerto for 2 violins in D Minor featuring Aisslinn Nosky and one of Tafelmusik’s newest core members, Johanna Novom, as soloists. Catch this program before Tafelmusik tours it in the United States in 2024.
