This concert features familiar songs and instrumental works that have
become modern standards in the musical world and have been altered in
the process. Some were changed in instrumentation, some grossly edited
to conform to modern stylistic and technical views. We will dust them
off and play them in their original versions, with all the excesses,
passions, and beauties they contained when they were first penned.
Featuring songs and cantatas by Handel, Bononcini, Caccini, and
Carissimi as well as sonatas by Handel, Corelli, and Eccles, this
concert will surely breathe life into music that was so well written it
has never gone out of fashion.
