About the concert

Many music lovers know that Vivaldi, aka “The Red Priest,” lived, worked, and taught for many years at the Ospedale in Venice—some of his most celebrated violin concerti were written for his students there. Lesser known, however, is the beautiful and mysterious leather-bound compendium that belonged to his prized pupil, Anna Maria della Pietà. In this program, the Sebastians delve into several concerti from this remarkable volume, which includes works by Vivaldi as well as other Italian baroque masters. The performance reimagines Venice by moonlight, featuring commissions by living composer Robert Honstein that evoke the sounds of the Ospedale after dark. Even Johann Sebastian Bach makes a surprise appearance in the Venetian moonlight. But never one to be outdone, the Red Priest closes the program with his biggest hit: the Concerto for Four Violins and Cello in B Minor from L’estro Armonico.
