Concert | A New Era: Late Baroque Violin Sonatas


With: Kristina Giles, Violin, and Rebecca Pechefsky, Harpsichord The end of the Baroque Era also happened to be the dawn of a new age: one that highlighted the flashiness and virtuosity of the violin as a solo instrument. The selections in this program are pieces written by two violinists who helped expand and stretch the technique of violinists and the ears of the audience as well. Francesco Maria Veracini is best described as a precursor to Paganini, and Jean-Marie Leclair was regarded by some as the founder of the French violin school. Their late works, showcased here, also tested the technique and artistry of the best performers- both then and even now.
