Summer 2025, an overview
By
David YangLike the big, messy, and complicated country it springs from, American music has a big, messy, and complicated history.
The Winter Baroque concert brings back firecracker violinist Nurit Pacht with her high-octane charisma alongside Cynthia Roberts' earnest and nuanced music-making. Cellist Eliana Razzino Yang is back, and Italian harpsichord player Nicola Canzano, hand-picked by Julliard faculty Cynthia, fills out the continuo section. Alessandra Yang, fresh from Juilliard pre-college and now at a conservatory in Vienna studying viola, will join her sister on stage.
The Winter Baroque program this year contains familiar classics and beloved "chestnuts" - musical comfort food: Bach's beloved Double Violin Concerto in D Minor, and his solo cello suite No. 3 in B Minor, Vivaldi's "La Folia" and his remarkable triple concerto for two violins and cello "L'Estro Armonico," Concerto Grosso in B Minor by George Frideric Handel, a novelty work by Marin Marais' Le Tableau de l'Opération de la Taille,' and a little surprise at the end of the concert.
Tickets are $30 in advance, $35 at the door, and free to students and EBT cardholders (ID required). For more information, visit newburyportchambermusic.org.
