A World Tour of Baroque Vocal Music Masterworks
La Follia continues its World Tour of Baroque Music series with a concert of secular and sacred vocal masterworks from Italy, France, Germany, and England.
Featured are familiar hits such as Handel's "Eternal Source" (from the Royal Wedding), Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Mans Desiring" and "Lobet den Herrn", and selections from Vivaldi's "Gloria". Also on the program are superb arias by Alessandro Scarlatti, Caccini, Pergolesi, Clerambault, Campra, Charpentier, Mondonville, Purcell, Fux, and Telemann.
Performing are soprano Meredith Ruduski, countertenor Sean Lee, tenor Steven Brennfleck, and bass Curt Vaughan, with four chorus voices and an 18-piece Baroque chamber ensemble, in the spacious acoustic of Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
