DESCRIPTION:
One of the world's finest period instrument orchestras comes to the Library with Alice Coote, a singer praised for her "commanding, sensual, and leonine presence" and "a voice of copper silk" in vocal and instrumental works by Dowland, Handel, Monteverdi, and Vivaldi.
Speaker Biography: The English Concert, with artistic director Harry Bicket and distinguished guest artists, performs Baroque and Classical music with the passion, sophistication and technical mastery established by its founder, Trevor Pinnock.
