BAROQUE GLOSS

2021 November 18th 7 p.m. St. Catherine’s Church (Vilniaus St. 30, Vilnius)

The Baroque era has given us many amazing composers. As you know, the music of this epoch is also connected with the St. The history of the formation of the Christopher Chamber Orchestra, so far the ensemble performs baroque music programs with joy and a great sense of style. This time, together with the soloist, trumpet player Dovas Lietuvninkas, the orchestra invites to commemorate the 340th birthday of the German composer Georg Philipp Telemann. G. Ph. Telemann was almost self-taught, but his contemporaries were considered one of the most influential creators. He was often compared to his good friend Johann Sebastian Bach. Telemann, by the way, was even the godfather of several Bach children! Together with D. Lietuvninkas, the orchestra will present several works by this composer, which will be accompanied by interesting creative parallels with works by composers of other epochs.
