Bach Concertos

Dec14
1:30 PM
Stravinsky, Bach, Clyne 
Friday, December 14, 2012

Among England's leading Baroque specialists, Harry Bicket conducts a program featuring the Chicago premiere of the double concerto by CSO Mead Composer-in-Residence Anna Clyne paired with the Bach Concerto for Two Violins, both performed by Jennifer Koh and Jaime Laredo. These are bookended by two concertos for orchestra—Stravinsky's neoclassical Dumbarton Oaks and Bach's exuberant Brandenburg No. 6. The CSO's own Scott Hostetler plays Bach's soothingly pastoral oboe d'amore concerto.

Violinist Jennifer Koh will sign copies of her recordings in Grainger Ballroom after the concert on Saturday December 15, 2012.
