Presented by Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra as part of Ten Days’ Tasmanian International Arts Festival

A

Vivaldi, Corelli, Geminiani… For centuries, Italy was the powerhouse of the musical world. It attracted composers from all over and the “Italian style” went global (or, as we might say today, it went viral).

In this concert Richard Gill, conductor and educator extraordinaire, takes you on a tour of Italian music of the Baroque, with Lloyd Hudson appearing as soloist in two sparkling concertos by Vivaldi.

But not just Italy, you’ll get to hear Grieg’s Holberg Suite and Warlock’s Capriol Suite, two classic works for string orchestra.
