Italy has always been the ‘land of music’, inventing and exporting one novelty after another. In the 18th Century, Antonio Vivaldi, Domenico Scarlatti, and Giovanni Battista Pergolesi were its heroes. Festa Italiana celebrates the explosion of invention these composers gave the world, including the instrumental concerto, the virtuoso aria, and the comic intermezzo. Soprano Danielle Reutter-Harrah and cellist William Skeen star alongside Pacific MusicWorks Artistic Directors Stephen Stubbs, Tekla Cunningham, and Henry Lebedinsky for a delightful journey through these fireworks of 18th-century Italian style.
The broadcast will take place will become available November 8 at 12am Pacific. Available to watch until September 1, 2022 at 12am Pacific.
