Toss out the powdered wigs! Baroque will never be the same for anyone after this concert. Composers of the late 17th and early 18th centuries engaged in more experimentation than they get credit for – and some of their music sounds like it could have been written today. The music of Biber, Telemann and Rameau includes polytonality (three keys at once!) and early hints of minimalism, jazz and the modern movie soundtrack.
BAROQUE TO THE FUTURE will be performed by the MusicaNova Orchestra, led by Music Director and Conductor Warren Cohen
