Focusing on five musicians who specialize in baroque performance from the Pacific Northwest, this concert/documentary will include interviews with the performers and a special opportunity to witness the rehearsal process and recording of rarely-heard 17th-century music from the Moravian/Bohemian region of what is now the Czech Republic. Join us as we invite you to experience an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at different voices coming together to create a chamber music program after months of performance cancellations because of the pandemic. Works by Gottfried Finger, Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber, Johann Heinrich Schmelzer, Pavel Josef Vejvanovský, and Alessandro Poglietti.
Directed by Kris Kwapis.
The broadcast will take place at 7pm Pacific.
