Bach, Giuseppe Sammartini, Handel, Mrs Philarmonica (the pen name of an anonymous female composer), plus a very special rendition of Vivaldi’s double concerto for two instruments, featuring violinist extraordinaire Shunske Sato and eminent recorder player Max Volbers. Now celebrating its 40th anniversary season, Concerto Köln remains on the forefront of early music performance. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to enjoy the group’s highly individual sound.
