Pacific Chamber Players’ Baroque Brilliance programme is promising to be brilliant! The accomplished ensemble is preparing Handel’s Atalanta Overture, Vivaldi’s Concerto Ripieno in C major RV 114 and Concerto for Oboe and Bassoon RV 545, Purcell’s Trumpet Sonata in D, Brescianello’s Sonata for Two Violin and Continuo and Zelenka’s Sonata No 3. Despite the titles, the music is emotional and rhythmic, as only Baroque music can be. Vivaldi’s music is fiery and heard daily in our lives, even though we don’t recognise it. Sue Hunkin (oboe) and Neil Heymink (bassoon) are looking forward to performing his double concerto. Similarly, Warren Brewer’s rendition of Purcell’s Trumpet Sonata will be regal and majestic.
