Listen

The music on week's program was inspired by sounds far distant from composer's home. Italians Geminiani and Matteis were captivated by Scottish melodies, Telemann wrote a Polish Concerto, and Bach was fascinated by the sounds of Italy. We'll hear from the Palladian Ensemble, Juilliard Baroque, and Jordi Savall.

  • Nicola Matteis: Bizzarie all’imor Scozzeze. Performed by The Palladian Ensemble.
